Thixotropic epoxy adhesive in cartridge form for structural anchors
Syntech Fix EP is a two-component adhesive with a ETAG 001 certified epoxy resin base, offering an elevated adhesive capacity and resistance to stresses from elevated loads, along with the rapid development of mechanical strength. It is suited to the anchoring and structural fastening of bars and metal elements on concrete surfaces, stone materials, brick, wood and building materials in general. Syntech Fix EP can also be utilised as a sealing agent between materials of different natures.

Fields of application
Syntech Fix EP is used as an adhesive to create structural anchors of threaded bars with improved adhesion, metal elements, fastening between materials of a different nature (steel, concrete), applications on wet or humid media, grouting cracks, repairs and filling, sealing of large diameter holes or applications with high-diameter bars and high-power dielectric anchors by cancelling the effect of stray currents.

Preparation of supports
Remove all crumbly parts with low mechanical strength and that are starting to detach from the affected area, completing the anchor holes on a healthy and compact substrate. Create the hole, checking its perpendicularity and blowing out the hole with compressed air. The holes must be cleaned and dedusted – remove any dust, oil, grease, paint, dirt, debris and any other residue that could affect adhesion.
Mode of use
The two components of Syntech Fix EP are packaged in a single 470 ml two-component cartridge with side-by-side sections. The components are blended in the mixing nozzle during extrusion, to be carried out with a special gun. Syntech Fix EP is ideal for fastenings with variable anchoring depth, to grant the drafter a high degree of flexibility. Screw the nozzle to the cartridge and insert into the pump. Protect the hands and face during preparation. Before proceeding with the application, ensure that the two components are completely mixed by extruding a small amount of product – if it emerges in a uniform colour, it has been properly mixed. Only at this point is the cartridge ready for use. Extrude Syntech Fix EP into the hole until it is filled to 2/3. Use a threaded bar cut at 45° on the end going into the hole. Insert the bar with a rotating motion to allow the air bubbles to escape. Respect the hardening and application times indicated on the data sheet.
