    Anchoring and Grouting

    Epofix G pure epoxy anchoring grout in 400 ml self-mixing cartridge for rebar and bolts by MATEX

    Epofix G

    High Performance Pure Epoxy Anchoring Grout

    EPOFIX G is a premium pure epoxy grout formulated for high-strength anchoring in concrete, rock, brick, and solid masonry. Suitable for both horizontal and vertical applications, it is ideal for securing steel rebar, bolts, and studs in structural settings. This non-shrink, VOC-compliant grout offers exceptional adhesion—surpassing the cohesive strength of concrete—while delivering superior chemical resistance, waterproofing, and long-term durability. EPOFIX G is also styrene-free and safe for immersed conditions, making it suitable for critical infrastructure and environmental applications. Supplied in a convenient self-mixing cartridge, it ensures clean, efficient installation with consistent performance.

    How to Apply Epofix G

    Epofix G is a pure epoxy anchoring grout dispensed from a self-mixing 400 ml cartridge into a drilled and cleaned hole.

    1. Drill the hole. Drill anchor bolt holes with air or rotary percussion drilling equipment using a hammer drill bit of the correct diameter and working length. If diamond core or non-percussive drills are used, roughen the sides of the hole thoroughly.
    2. Clean the hole. Remove all drilling debris and dust with a stiff nylon bottle brush and clean compressed air or a hole cleaning pump. For deeper holes use a blow out pump or compressed air nozzle (> 6 bar).
    3. Prepare the cartridge. Remove the screw cap, attach the mixer nozzle and place the cartridge in the applicator. Dispense and discard the first part of the cartridge until an even color is achieved.
    4. Inject the grout. Insert the mixer nozzle to the far end of the hole and half fill the hole (depending on the application), withdrawing the nozzle as the hole fills. Extension tubing can be used for deep holes.
    5. Insert the fixing. Immediately insert the fixing slowly with a slight twisting motion, and remove excess resin from the mouth of the hole before it sets.
    6. Cure and load. Leave the fixing undisturbed until the loading time has elapsed (e.g. 16 hours minimum curing time at 20°C), then attach the fixture and tighten the nut.
    7. Clean tools. Clean all tools with Armosolvent before the material hardens. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the gel time and curing time of Epofix G?

    Gel time / minimum curing time is 120 minutes / 24 hours at 5°C, 15 minutes / 16 hours at 20°C, 7 minutes / 8 hours at 30°C and 5 minutes / 4 hours at 40°C.

    What strength does Epofix G achieve?

    At 7 days Epofix G reaches 70 N/mm² compressive strength (ASTM D695), 21 N/mm² tensile strength (ASTM D638) and 29 N/mm² slant shear strength (ASTM C882).

    Can Epofix G be used in vertical holes and underwater?

    Yes. Epofix G is used for structural anchoring of steel rebar, bolts and studs in both horizontal and vertical applications, and it can be used for immersed applications.

    What substrates is Epofix G suitable for?

    It is used for general purpose horizontal and vertical anchoring in rock, concrete, brick or solid masonry.

    How should Epofix G cartridges be stored?

    Store between +5˚C and +25˚C away from direct sunlight and observe the expiry date on the cartridge. Part-used cartridges can be stored and reused by removing the nozzle, wiping the openings and closing with the cap.
