Description
ABE Epidermix 318 is a two-component, solvent-free, polyamide-cured epoxy adhesive and repair compound designed for structural concrete restoration. It’s ideal for patching defects such as honeycombing, spalls, and voids, and can be used to fabricate components or repair fibre cement products. ABE Epidermix 318 offers excellent adhesion to dry or damp surfaces and holds its place on vertical and overhead faces. It’s easy to apply by gloved hand and smooths off cleanly with a dampened steel trowel.
ABE Epidermix 318 is commonly used in soffit repairs, lift shafts, tunnels, and water-retaining structures. It cures to a high-strength, non-toxic finish and resists oils, fuels, water, and dilute chemicals.
