Sikadur-32 is a high performance bonding agent based on a 2-component solvent free epoxy resin ideally suited to a wide range of building and civil engineering applications.
Sikadur-32 may be used to bond epoxy mortars, fresh cementitious concrete or mortar to a wide variety of surfaces including mineral substrates (concrete, brick, stone, mortar, GRC, fibrous cement), wood, iron and steel and cured epoxy mortars. Sikadur-32 exhibits excellent adhesion enabling it to be successfully employed in both structural and non-structural situations. Special high strength grades can be made to order.
