Description
BoltHold EPX3 Anchoring Epoxy Cartridge
The EPX3 is a two-component resin adhesive-grout particularly suitable for anchoring into asphalt. The grout can be applied at temperatures as low as 14ºF.
The grout fills the crevices in the asphalt as it cures, forming a strong mechanical bond with the asphalt on the one hand, and with the anchor on the other. This is a stress-free bond that does not weaken with time.
Cure time
The grout can be applied at asphalt temperatures from 14°F to 104°F. However, below 23oF the grout
itself needs to be preconditioned to 68F. The table below shows working time and cure time as a
function of ambient and asphalt temperatures:
TEMPERATURE °F WORK TIME, MINUTES CURE TIME
14 90 24 hours
41 25 2 hours
68 6 45 minutes
86 4 25 minutes
Shelf Life
When kept at temperatures between 41oF and 77oF, shelf life is 18 months. It is OK to use EPX3 up to 6
months past its expiration date. (The dates need to be observed for critical installations on concrete;
with asphalt older epoxy is still many times stronger than the asphalt.)
