Epoxy mortar repair kit

SpecPoxy Mortar is a three-component, 100% solids, multi-purpose epoxy mortar designed for industrial and commercial applications such as warehouse floors, ramps, loading docks, and rebuilding joint nosings. This system combines a high-quality epoxy binder with an engineered blend of graded aggregates to provide superior trowel-ability, compressive and tensile strength, impact, and chemical resistance.

  • Superior bond, compressive, and flexural strength compared to cementitious systems.
  • Long pot life, suitable for applications between 60-90°F.
  • Ideal for high-traffic areas like loading docks and ramps.
  • Pre-measured proportions ensure easy installation.
  • Dries to a light gray mortar color.
  • Trowel-able consistency tailored for horizontal applications.
  • Exceptional abrasion, chemical, and impact resistance.
  • Moisture insensitive and stain resistant.
  • Solvent-free and VOC compliant.
  • Supports foot traffic in 12 hours; vehicle traffic in 24 hours.
  • USDA accepted for indirect food contact.

Application

Surface Preparation

  • Cleaning the Surface: Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from oil, grease, dirt, laitance, curing compounds, and other foreign materials. Mechanical abrasion or sandblasting is recommended to remove contaminants and create a suitable bonding profile.

Mixing and Application

  • Mixing Instructions: Ensure air, material, and surface temperatures are between 50°F and 90°F. Precondition materials to approximately 70°F for easier mixing. Mix components separately before combining. Mix one part of component A with one part of component B by volume for 2-3 minutes. Gradually add part C (aggregate) to the mixed components, ensuring all aggregates are thoroughly coated.
  • Placing the Mortar: Apply the mixed epoxy mortar immediately, or within 30-40 minutes, to the prepared surface using a trowel or rake. Use SpecChem Solvent 100 as a finishing aid for a smooth finish. For increased texture and improved traction, broadcast additional dry sand into the wet mortar immediately after application.

Coverage and Curing

  • Coverage: A 1/2 cubic foot unit at a 1/4” thickness covers approximately 24 sq-ft.
  • Curing: SpecPoxy Mortar cures to a light gray mortar color, ready for foot traffic in 12 hours and vehicle traffic in 24 hours.

Cleaning

  • Tool Cleaning: Clean tools and equipment immediately with an appropriate solvent before the material hardens.

Packaging

  • 1/2 cubic foot unit: Component A (1/2 gal), Component B (1/2 gal), Component C (1-50 lb. bag)
  • 1.0 cubic foot unit: Component A (1 gal), Component B (1 gal), Component C (2–50 lb. bags)

Shelf Life

  • Store in its original containers in a dry environment between 45-95°F.
  • The shelf life is two years from the date of manufacture when properly stored.
