REZI-WELD™
3/2
EPOXY GROUT-PATCH KIT
Three components pre-blended into
two...reduces labor and job-site confusion.
SEALTIGHT REZI-WELD 3/2 Grout-Patch Kit is a versatile, high-modulus
two-component epoxy kit providing a flowable viscosity and high compressive
strength all in one unitized mixing vessel.
Technical Description
SEALTIGHT REZI-WELD 3/2 Grout-Patch Kit is a moisture-insensitive,
two-component epoxy kit for grouting, sealing base plates and patching concrete.
Part A, the specially formulated epoxy resin and selected, graded aggregates are
premixed and packaged in a 5-gallon (18.93 liter) container. A drop-in tray is
provided to hold the separately packaged Part B, or activator. This handy,
unitized packaging provides its own mixing vessel. Just open the pail, remove
the tray, add the activator to the premixed epoxy-aggregate compound and mix
until ready to use...it's that easy.
REZI-WELD 3/2 Grout-Patch offers a flowable viscosity for application
versatility. It provides a 50 to 60 minute work life and offers high compressive
strength. REZI-WELD 3/2 Grout-Patch resists many industrial chemicals, alkalis,
oils, gasoline, most solvents, and some acids.
Uses
REZI-WELD 3/2 Grout-Patch Kit is ideal for a variety of
construction grouting and patching repair projects. As an epoxy grout, it can be
readily poured under base plates or used for anchoring bolts. When applied as a
concrete patch, the patching mix serves as a brushed on primer. A finishing
trowel completes the patching mix application while the primer is still tacky.

Application
SURFACE PREPARATION: Mechanically abrade
all surfaces to be bonded. Substrates must be dust-free, clean and void of all
contaminants, and should be dry for optimal adhesion. All surfaces must be
abraded to a white metal finish. Apply grout immediately to prevent flash
rusting.
FORMING: The flowable consistency of REZI-WELD 3/2 GROUT-PATCH requires that
forms be used around the base plates to contain the grout/patch. Seal all forms
to prevent the grout/patch from leaking. To prevent adhesion of the grout to the
forms, apply a suitable bond breaker. To facilitate placement, allow for
a2" (50.8mm) formwork head.
MIXING: Condition all components to 60ºF-85ºF for 24 hours prior to use.
Pre-mix each component. Mechanically mix at a slow speed (600-900 rpm) using a
drill and Jiffy Blade or drum mixer for 3 minutes or until completely mixed
while scraping the sides to ensure complete blending of components. The mixed
product should be uniform gray in color and not show streaks. Avoid air
entrapment. Mix only very small quantities by hand for a minimum of 3 minutes or
until sufficiently blended together using the supplied stirring stick. Scrape
the sides of the container to ensure complete blending of components. Mix only
the amount of epoxy that can be applied within the product's potlife. Potlife
will decrease as the ambient temperature and/or mass size increases.
METHOD OF APPLICATION: Avoid air entrapment by pouring the prepared grout into
the forms from 1 or 2 sides. Maintain a liquid head to ensure complete contact
with the base plate. Place enough grout/patch to allow the grout to rise
slightly above the underside of the base plate. A 1" (25.4mm) minimum grout
head is required.
CLEANUP: Tools and equipment should be cleaned immediately after application.
Clean equipment away from heat, sparks and open flame with Toluene or Xylene.
Avoid breathing vapors or allowing epoxy-containing solvent to contact skin.
Should skin contact occur, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
Packaging
5 gallon (18.93 liter) Pails
Coverage
One unit will yield approximately .50 ft³ (3.75 gallons)
(0.014m³) of grout/patch when Part A and Part B Components are completely mixed
together.
Shelf Life
Shelf life is approximately two years in the original, unopened
container when stored in a dry environment at temperatures 40 to 90ºF (4º to
32ºC).
Precautions
Do not dilute. Addition of solvents will prevent proper curing.
Surface temperatures must be between 40º and 90ºF (4º to 32ºC). Cold
material may need to be pushed, rodded or chained to achieve proper placement.
Keep container tightly closed until ready for use. Unused epoxy will generate
excessive heat, especially in large quantities. Unused epoxy should be mixed
with dry sand in a container to help lower the heat.
Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet for complete health and safety information.
