Description
ABE Durarep ZR Primer is a single-component, zinc-rich epoxy resin designed to protect exposed steel reinforcement from corrosion prior to concrete repair. Enriched with metallic zinc, it provides electrochemical protection and forms a continuous, unbroken film over cleaned steel surfaces. ABE Durarep ZR Primer is ideal for use with the full range of Durarep mortars and repair systems, ensuring long-term durability and resistance to incipient anode formation.
