Specific use in industry


EPOCAST G is a three-component high strength epoxy grouting compound with excellent mechanical properties, chemical resistance, short cure time and good bonding characteristics. It is mainly used as intermediate base between concrete foundation and EPOCAST 36® or EPOCAST 36-L chocks for mounting rotating machinery in power plants and other industrial applications.

EPOCAST 36 ®and EPOCAST INDUSTRIE are two-component pourable chocking compounds with excellent physical characteristics replacing the conventional method of steel chocks when used for mounting mounting engines, auxiliary gears, compressors, pumps, tiling machines, paper presses, support bearings etc.
EPOCAST 36® and EPOCAST INDUSTRIE chocks are not only econimical to fit but offer additional benefits such as their ability to fill any reasonable irregularity in the chocking interface and to reduce noise and vibration.

EPOCAST 36-P is a trowelable two-component epoxy paste which was specifically developed for installation of LNG/LPG tanks, chemical tanks and containment systems. EPOCAST 36-P is a further development of the worldwide proven chocking and grouting system EPOCAST 36® and is everywhere in application where it is not practical to use a freely floating resin. EPOCAST 36-P can be heavily loaded and has good adhesive properties even at extremely low temparatures.

EPOCAST F consists of a filling mixture made up from polyols which, in combination with isocyanides, hardens into a elastic polyurethane moulding material. Owing to the low temperatures in the curing process even when employed for large scale casts and the low level contraction strain involved, this specialized casting mass is particularly well-suited for founding sensitive equipment and structural elements. Other positive benefits of EPOCAST F are the long potting time as well as the smooth surface after hardening.

EPOCAST EPM is a trowelable two-component epoxy paste which due to its exceptional high standard fillers is absolutely corrosion resistant. EPOCAST EPM conforms to any shape and cures quickly to form a tough, abrasion and chemical resistant coating for long lasting and cost effective repairs.
EPOCAST EPM has proved itself in many different applications such as pump casings, impellers, cavitation damages, repair of corroded hull and deck plating and smoothing of weld seams.
