Epomast Bedding Grout

SKU: EPOMAST-BEDDING-GROUT

Epoxy Resin for High Performance Repair & Filling

Epomast Epoxy Grout is a three pack, pourable resin with excellent chemical and weather resistance and a very high mechanical strength.

It consists of a combination of formulated resins and specially graded fillers which produce a high performing, free-flowing resin based grout for filling and repairing gap widths between 5 – 40mm.

Typically it is used for precision grouting of machine bases, crane-rails, high speed turbines, drop forges, and other operating equipment subject to heavy dynamic loading. Pre-weighed components make Epomast Bedding Grout easy to mix and apply.

Epoxy Resin Based Flowable Grout

EPOMAST BEDDING GROUT is a two-pack high-density material with good flow characteristics.
When cured it possesses extremely high mechanical strengths, adheres tenaciously to most sound building surfaces, it is waterproof and resistant to a wide range of chemicals

Advantages

Typical applications include
• Bedding machine bases
• Bedding stanchion bases
• Bedding manhole frames

Typical Strengths after Full Cure:
Compressive 89 N/mm2 Tensile 19 N/mm2 Flexural 52 N/mm2

• Forming bridge bearing pads
• Grouting pre-stressing tendon anchorages
• Grouting fixing bolts and dowels

Application

Cure Time
Full cure is after 5 days at 20°C with approximately 50% of strengths achieved after 24 hours. Lower temperatures will prolong cure time, and material will not develop strength below 5°C.
Colour
A natural brown.
Use
Surface Preparation
Surfaces should be sound, clean, free from laitance, dust, oils or other deposits and surface needs to be dry.
Mixing
As viscosity and flow characteristics are influenced by temperature, before mixing, the pack should preferably be brought to a temperature of 15 -20°C either by means of ambient storage temperature or by application of indirect heat. When packs are at suitable temperature empty entire contents of Base and Hardener packs into clean plastic bucket or similar and mix very thoroughly.
Unit sizes in excess of 10 kilos should preferably be mixed in a powered paddle mixer.
Application
Immediately after mixing pour material onto prepared surface maintaining a head of pressure and using trowel to assist flow. The application must allow for displacement of air.
When working in low temperatures, flow will be facilitated by allowing material to stand for 5-8 minutes and then re-mixing for 1-2 minutes before placing.
Protect material from moisture for 24 hours.
Do not apply in temperatures below 5°C.
Pot Life
This is influenced by temperature, volume of mixed material and type of container. Lower temperature, smaller volume and a wider container giving a shallower bulk of material, will extend pot life. Under normal conditions a pot life of approximately 25 minutes can be expected.
Cleaning of Equipment
Use RESOKLENS for cleaning equipment immediately after use and before material has set firm.

Coverage

Approximately 600cm3 per kilo

Storage

Keep all containers sealed, store at room temperature and away from direct heat Under normal temperate and dry conditions storage life is in
excess of one year.

Shelf Life

Shelf life is minimum 12 months subject to storage temperature and humidity.
