How to repair fine cracks in concrete using injection resin

injection method - injecting epoxy resin in to cracks

This method can be used for repairing fine and hairline cracks in concrete floors, slabs, walls, panels, columns, beam, soffits, kerbs and other concrete features on horizontal, vertical and overhead surfaces to consolidate the structural element and eliminate water penetration. It can also be used for cracks in masonry and brickwork.

METHOD FOR INJECTING EPOXY RESIN INTO CRACKS

  • Clean out all debris from the crack by raking or high pressure air line.
  • Adhere the injection flanges at 300mm centres to the concrete surface with the surface sealer/ adhesive directly over the crack. Use a rod to locate the crack and keep the flange aperture free from adhesive. Seal the rest of the exposed crack.
  • Mix the resin and fill the empty cartridge. Inject the resin via the plastic hose and flange into the crack and work along the crack from flange to flange. Fill until no more resin is accepted.
  • When the resin has hardened knock of the flanges and grind the concrete to a smooth finish if necessary.
