Weber.tec EP Injection Resin
Epoxy plus injection resin.
Low-viscosity and thixotropic resins for injection of cracked concrete, masonry and brickwork
Weber.tec EP injection resin LV is a two-component resin for crack injection systems. The resin will structurally bond the fractured sections and seal fine cracks against ingress of water and/or aggressive agents.
Weber.tec EP injection resin T is a moisture-tolerant gel epoxy resin for structural repairs to cracked concrete and masonry. The resin will repel dampness in the cracks and bond the broken sections.
Uses:
Low viscosity injection resin (LV)
- Fine cracks to concrete and masonry
- Repair crack widths from 0.2 mm – 2 mm
- Structural repairs to concrete and masonry
- Application temperature range 5°C to 40°C
- Fine cracks to suspended concrete floors and decks
- Concrete bridges and highway structures
- Car parks
- Plastic shrinkage and drying shrinkage cracks in new construction
Thixotropic injection resin (T):
- Structural repairs to concrete and masonry construction
- Repair crack widths from 0·5 mm – 8 mm
- Settlement crack repair in masonry buildings
- Repair of cracks to cavity walls
- Refurbishment of old buildings and strengthening work to car parks
- Application temperature range 5°C to 40°C
- Concrete bridges, retaining walls and highway structures
- Crack injection to liquid retaining structures and treatment works
Features & Benefits:
Low viscosity injection resin
- Injects into cracks down to 0.2 mm width and structurally bond hairline cracks
- Good penetration into the crack due to low viscosity
- Easy-to-use two-component mix
- Can be applied in damp environments
- Non-shrinkage properties ensuring excellent bond durability
Thixotropic injection resin
- Will bond to damp substrates allowing greater flexibility in site use
- Can be injected from one side only
- Gel consistency allows injection to floors, walls and soffits – only one product required
- High physical strength
- Non shrinking properties with durable Bond

Summary of injection process:
- Throughly clean the crack surface.
- Fix the injection nipples with weber.tec filler.
- Space the nipples according to the depth of penetration.
- Seal the remainder of the crack surface weber.tec filler, ensure all exit routes aresealed.
- Mix the injection resin, load cartridge and attach injection hose.
- Inject the resin through the nipple and progressively work up the crack.
- Wait 24 hours, then take off injection nipples and make good.
