Concrete is a porous material that can develop cracks, chips, or holes over time due to various factors such as weathering, impact, or structural stress. In such cases, Epoxy putty provides an effective solution for repairing and restoring damaged concrete surfaces. Epoxy putty is a type of adhesive material that consists of two components: a resin and a hardener. When these two components are mixed, a chemical reaction occurs, causing the putty to harden and create a strong, durable bond. RELinforce™ EP Putty is one such product used for a variety of repair and bonding applications. It is a two-component solvent-free thixotropic epoxy putty used for levelling concrete & metal surfaces with superior bonding characteristics. RELinforce™ EP Putty is manufactured by Reliance Composite and is used for the repair and rehabilitation of jetties, ports, bridges etc.

- Quick and Easy Application: The putty is usually supplied in a ready-to-use form, requiring minimal preparation.
- Thixotropic properties:The thixotropic properties of the epoxy putty help it adhere well to vertical or overhead surfaces, enhancing its bonding capabilities.
- Water Resistance: Once cured, epoxy putty forms a waterproof barrier. This property is especially beneficial for concrete repairs in areas exposed to water and to prevent moisture penetration.
- Durability: Epoxy putty is known for its durability and long-lasting performance. It can withstand heavy loads, impact, and abrasions.
Applications of RELinforce™ EP Putty
- Filling pin holes & pores appearing on concrete surfaces before subsequent resin application
- Repairing surface defects of concrete in horizontal, vertical & overhead Applications
- Structural bonding for carbon fiber rods
- Installation of injection ports for resin injection
- General purpose adhesive for concrete, hard natural stone, ceramics, fiber cement, mortar, bricks, blocks, masonry, steel, iron, aluminum and wood
- Levelling layer on the metal surface before application of RELINFORCE Fabric System for retrofitting
When properly applied, RELinforce™ EP Putty forms a strong bond with the existing concrete surface. This bond ensures that the repaired area remains secure and durable, withstanding daily use, loads, and environmental stresses.
