Vetorep ER450

Epoxy-based transition mortar (Abrasion resistant & flexible).

Vetorep ER450 is a three-component system consisting of solvent-free epoxy resins, hardener, and special blend of fillers to provide a flexible trowel-grade epoxy mortar. The mixed mortar is designed for bridge and highway transitioning joints and between concrete, asphalt, and steel.

Uses

  • Can be used as a transition mortar between bridge decks and mechanical expansion joints.
  • Can be used in the interface between asphalt and concrete slabs.
  • Can be used in the interface between steel and concrete elements.
  • Can be used where a trafficable yet flexible mortar is needed.

Advantages

  • Solvent-free.
  • Hard-wearing with high abrasion resistance.
  • Excellent adhesion to concrete, asphalt, and steel surfaces.
  • Withstands dynamic movement.
  • Cures quickly.
  • Requires no priming.
  • It creates a flexible mortar.

Usage Instructions

Before applying Vetorep ER450, make sure the surface is structurally sound, free from oil, grease, and other forms of contamination. Concrete surfaces should be dry and prepared either by scabbling or grit blasting.

The Vetorep ER450 kit has three components, a resin base, hardener, and a filler (all pre-weighed to the correct proportions). Do not mix partial quantities. 

Scrap the bottom and sides of the resin container thoroughly. Then, pour the hardener into the base container. Using a mixing paddle attached to a heavy-duty slow speed electric drill, mix for approximately 2 minutes until a uniform consistency is achieved. 

Transfer the resin mixture to a separate container or forced action pan mixer, add the Filler gradually and mix for another 2 minutes or until the filler has thoroughly wetted out and uniform consistency is achieved.

Use tamping first to Apply Vetorep ER450, then trowel using steel float.

Allow Vetorep ER450 to cure for 24 hours at 25°C before being subjected to foot traffic. At the same temperature, full mechanical and chemical properties are achieved after 7 days (please consult the Saveto Technical Department for curing times at other temperatures).

Remove Vetorep ER450 from tools, equipment, and mixers with Vetonit Solvent XX400 immediately after use.
