Flex Epoxy - Flexible Control Joint Filler

 
 

Description

Flex-Epoxy is a 100% solids, two component, equal volume elastic type epoxy. If is a self-leveling system used for saw-cut control joints and grooves in masonry.

Basic Uses

Flex-Epoxy is recommended for use as a filter and sealer for narrow masonry control joints and grooves to prevent damage to the joint and its edges as well as promote a clean sanitary surface. Due to its tenacious bonding quality and high strength, it reinforces the joint and edges, preventing deterioration. Flex Epoxy seals and protects against water, foreign matter and corrosive elements.

Limitations
