EPOLOCK 1300- Two Components Adhesive
EPOLOCK™ 1300, a two-component injectable epoxy adhesive designed for rebar connections and heavy anchoring in construction. Here are the key points from the document:
1. **Product Description**: EPOLOCK™ 1300 is an easy-to-use, two-component epoxy adhesive that cures at ambient temperatures. It is used for anchoring bolts and rebars in concrete structures.
2. **Application**: The adhesive is suitable for various types of bolts and rebars in concrete structures. It can be used in holes made with diamond drills or pneumatic drills.
3. **Preparation**: Before injection, the hole must be cleaned thoroughly using a wire brush and compressed air at least twice to remove dust and debris. The adhesive is then injected into two-thirds of the hole depth, and the bolt or rebar is inserted.
4. **Mixing Ratio**: The mixing ratio for the two components (1300/A and 1300/B) is 100:30 by weight.
5. **Curing Time**: The curing time varies with temperature:
– 5°C: 2 days
– 10°C: 2 days
– 15°C: 1 day
– 20°C: 12 hours
– 30°C: 8 hours
– 40°C: 4 hours
6. **Storage**: The adhesive has a shelf life of 2 years when stored at 25°C. The expiration date is printed on the containers.
7. **Packaging**: EPOLOCK™ 1300 is available in twin-packaging of 870 grams each, with other packaging options available upon request.
8. **Safety Precautions**: In case of skin contact, wash the affected area with plenty of water. Use plastic gloves and safety goggles when handling the adhesive. Ensure no leakage or environmental contamination during transportation.
9. **Performance**: The adhesive provides high bond strength, low shrinkage, excellent chemical resistance, and good thermal resistance. It complies with ASTM C881 standards, except for gel time.
10. **Technical Specifications**:
– Density: 1200 kg/m³
– Lap shear strength:
– Steel to steel: 16-18 MPa (ASTM D1002)
– Concrete to concrete: 12-13 MPa (ASTM C881)
– Concrete to concrete in fully wet conditions: 10 MPa (ASTM C881)
– Water absorption: 20% after 24 hours at 25°C.
This adhesive is ideal for heavy-duty anchoring and rebar connections in construction, offering strong bonding and durability under various conditions.
