From Quikrete, a stronger repair line
The Quikrete Companies, manufacturer of packaged concrete products, introduced three new repair products: Quikrete FastSet Concrete Crack Repair, Quikrete Epoxy Concrete Repair and Quikrete Polymer Modified Structural Repair.
“Concrete is a hard, durable material, but will inevitably crack, chip, break or suffer some other damage that requires repair,” said Frank Owens, VP of marketing for The Quikrete Companies. “We’ve strengthened our already comprehensive repair line with several new advanced-technology products that cure quickly and structurally bond cracked and broken concrete. In fact, the FastSet Concrete Crack Repair can penetrate even the smallest cracks and harden to produce permanent repairs that other traditional materials can only address cosmetically. These competitive advantages expedite repairs with unmatched performance, which saves time, money and frustration fixing damaged surfaces.”
• Specially formulated as a self-leveling, low-viscosity material, Quikrete FastSet Concrete Crack Repair penetrates deep into cracks ranging from hairline to 1 inch before gaining bond strength that delivers permanent repairs. It is a rapid-curing, two-part hybrid polyurethane crack repair material that can have traffic on driveways, basements, garages, bridge decks, sidewalks and other horizontal concrete surfaces open in one hour. The 8.6-ounce cartridges are applied with a standard caulk gun and available for approximately $20.
• A rapid-curing, two-part epoxy with non-sag characteristics, Quikrete Epoxy Concrete Repair is ideal for vertical and horizontal bonding and repair applications in concrete, brick, stucco and other cementitious materials. The 8.6-ounce cartridges are applied with a standard caulk gun and available for approximately $17.
• A polymer-modified, rapid-hardening, high-strengthen material, Quikrete Polymer Modified Structural Repair is designed for partial-depth repairs in vertical and horizontal surfaces from feathered edge to eight inches thick. It can also be extended with gravel for full-depth repair more than four inches. Quikrete Polymer Modified Structural Repair, which can be shaped to match the surrounding surfaces, is available in 20-pound pails for approximately $13.
