Epoxy.com Product #26HP
High Strength, High Performance Epoxy Grout
DESCRIPTION
Epoxy.com Product #26HP is a high strength, non shrink, 100% solids epoxy
grout. Epoxy Resin and specially formulated aggregate produce a fluid, non
shrink precision grout. Units are preproportioned for ease of mixing and use
on the jobsite. Epoxy.com Product #26HP has superior handling and physical
characteristics when compared to conventional epoxy grouts.
ADVANTAGES
- Epoxy.com Product #26HP is simple to use. Premeasured proportions allow
for precise and repeatable results.
- Epoxy.com Product #26HP is insensitive to moisture and may be used on
dry and damp substrates.
- Pourable consistency - flows easily, self-levels in base-plate forms,
anchor bolt holes and floor toppings.
- Formulation permits placement up to three (3) inches thick.
- High strengths - 12,000 psi compressive strength in twenty-four (24)
hours at 73°F; ultimate strength averages 17,000 psi in twenty eight
(28) days.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Proper preparation of the substrate and the contact area of the base
plate is essential. Substrate must be both clean and sound. Remove laitance,
oils and grease from concrete by sandblasting or bush hammering. If
possible, sandblast bottom of base plates and wipe clean and dry. Apply
grout as soon as possible after cleaning steel surfaces to prevent
recurrence of oxidation. (If corrosion resistant primer for steel base plate
edges or top surface is required, use Epoxy.com
Product # 1200 - Epoxy Zinc Rich Primer.)
MIXING
Initial mix temperature must be 50°F minimum. For best performance, mix
entire pack. Pour B Component into pail of A component. Mix for two (2)
minutes with low speed mixer until uniform. Scrape sides and bottom to
ensure complete mixing, avoid entrapping air. Slowly add filler while
continuing to mix resin until all is added or desired consistency. Mix
additional one (1) minute and place grout.
If less than full unit is required, carefully measure 100 parts Component
A and 16 parts Component B by weight and add desired amount of filler. Do
not thin Epoxy.com Product #26HP. Solvent will prevent proper cure, and may
cause shrinkage.
APPLICATION
Construct containing form with head box, if necessary. Any form surface
in contact with Epoxy.com Product #26HP must be coated with release agent. Seal
forms tightly to prevent leakage. Leakage that causes grout in place to
subside below plate bottom level will cause loss of contact and voids at
grout/base plate bottom interface. Re-establishing complete contact will be
difficult at best. Be certain that all tools and mixing materials are at
hand prior to mixing of Epoxy.com Product #26HP.
Mix Epoxy.com Product #26HP in accordance with mixing instructions. Pour
grout into form from one side only. Pour continuously while maintaining a
minimum of one (1) inch of head above the base plate bottom until grout
appears full width of the base plate at opposite side of the form. Continue
pouring at a reduced rate until Epoxy.com Product #26HP levels at 1/4" above the
plate bottom on all sides. Clean equipment with MEK, Xylene, or similar
solvent before Epoxy.com Product #26HP hardens. If placement depth
exceeds three (3) inches, contact Epoxy.com Technical Service for assistance.
PACKAGING
Epoxy.com Product #26HP is conveniently packaged: "A" Component in a 3.5
gallon pail; "B" Component in a 1 gallon jug and four (4) 50 lb. bags of "C"
Component. Yield is 1.75 cubic feet per unit at 4 bags "C" Component.
Five (5) bags may be used for economy but will result in very stiff grout.
Yield with 5 bags is 2.0 cubic feet. Note: This product is not
a stock item and is made to fill each order as it comes in. Please
allow up to 2 weeks for manufacturing.
SHELF LIFE
