SEALBOND 458-PE

SEALBOND PILE SPLICING EPOXY (458-PE) is a two-component fast setting epoxy formulation with a high chemical and physical strength, designed primarily for bonding concrete piles. The cured resin provides high compressive and flexural strength to the joined when used with fine aggregates as filler.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surfaces to be bonded must be dry and free of oil, dirt, grease, rust and other contaminants. Spoiled concrete or loose particle must be completely removed. The use of compressed air is highly recommended for cleaning the dowel holes in order to obtain a clean and structurally sound surface.

MIXING AND APPLICATION

Pre-measure enough quantities of resin base, hardeners and filler to be used. Sand should always be clean, dry and bagged. Mix thoroughly resin base with aggregates then add the hardener.

Pour the admixture on the top surface of the lower pile and allow to flow into the dowel holes, to avoid air entrapment. Lower the upper pile and check for correct dimension and adhesion between the piles. Allow the epoxy mortar to cure.

CLEAN UP

All tools and equipment must be cleaned immediately after application. Use SEALBOND EPOXY REDUCER to remove excess resin and hardener. Cured epoxy admixture can only be removed by grinding.
