Manapoxy EP62 is a paste-like rebar anchoring adhesive based on epoxy resin and an amine-modified hardener, supplied in cartridge form. Its cartridge-based system is highly preferred due to its ease of use and low error rates during application. The viscosity of Mana Epoxy EP62 is specifically designed to be suitable for anchoring bolts and rebars on both horizontal and vertical surfaces.
This adhesive is solvent-free with very low volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It offers exceptional mechanical strength and bonding properties, creating permanent connections. The formulation is tailored for use in both dry and wet environments.
Manapoxy EP62 is one of the most popular and best-selling products of Mandana Polymer Engineering Company. Its performance and quality are comparable to foreign brands like Hilti adhesives, yet it is available at a third of the price. The product undergoes rigorous quality control tests before mass production to ensure compliance with all relevant standards.

How to Use Manapoxy Adhesive EP62
Step 1: Pre-application Preparation
– Ensure surfaces are free from dust, moisture, grease, and other contaminants. Improper surface preparation can significantly reduce adhesion.
– Ideally, the anchoring holes should be dry during application.
– Avoid adding any external substances (e.g., thinner or other diluents) to the cartridge contents.
– Optimal temperature for application is between 20°C to 30°C.
– Avoid heating materials with open flames or direct heat.
– Store the EP62 cartridges at 20°C to 30°C.
Step 2: Application Process
1. Clean the anchoring holes thoroughly using compressed air and a wire brush to remove debris.
2. Remove the initial caps from components A and B of the cartridge and attach the mixer nozzle.
3. Place the cartridge into a suitable twin-barrel injection gun. Inject the adhesive by pressing the gun’s trigger, ensuring complete mixing of the two components during application.
4. Inject the adhesive uniformly from the bottom of the hole to avoid air entrapment, filling two-thirds of the hole.
5. Clean the rebars to remove rust, contaminants, and grease. Insert them into the filled hole, twisting to ensure full contact between the rebar and adhesive.
Key Notes
– Avoid moving the rebar until the adhesive has reached its initial cure.
– Store the cartridge at room temperature (20°C–30°C) for at least one day before use.
– After mixing resin and hardener, the adhesive gradually heats up, initially becoming slightly stiff, and then softening due to the reaction heat. The mixture fully hardens after approximately 45 minutes.
– At 25°C, the initial curing time is 45 minutes, secondary curing takes 6 hours, and full curing is achieved within 5 to 7 days.
– Use gloves and a mask during application.
