Achieve invisible, high-strength bonds in stone, tile, and masonry. Ensure precision and durability where thin glue lines and a clean, colour-matched finish are critical. No visible glue lines. No yellowing. Just a permanent, reliable finish. This epoxy delivers the correct structural bond for demanding aesthetic applications.
Megapoxy 63 is a translucent, 100% solids, high-strength two-part epoxy gel adhesive. It was formulated for thin-film applications where bond strength, precise application, and a clean finish are paramount. This includes bonding natural stone, ceramic, and brick to masonry, and repairing stone voids or chipped edges. Its composition ensures a strong, non-shrink bond that resists yellowing, preventing the callbacks and aesthetic failures common with less capable adhesives.
Megapoxy 63 features a simple 2:1 mixing ratio by volume. Its thick gel texture blends easily to a smooth, workable consistency, spreading readily with a notched trowel to facilitate thin glue lines. With a 30-minute work time at 25°C, it offers sufficient time for precise placement and adjustment. Complete mixing of Parts A and B is essential for achieving the stated physical properties and preventing discolouration over time. For cleaning mixing implements and tools, use Megapoxy Thinners.
Megapoxy 63 offers a translucent, high-strength epoxy gel specifically for thin-film stone, tile, and masonry bonding and repair. It ensures minimal visible glue lines and resists yellowing, unlike many general-purpose adhesives. When your project demands a visually discreet, robust bond for aesthetic applications such as miter joints in natural stone, Megapoxy 63 is the precise formulation. For applications requiring greater versatility in consistency, consider other epoxies in the Megapoxy family like Megapoxy PM Adhesive or Megapoxy PF Epoxy Adhesive, which might offer paste-like or flowable properties for different filling or structural needs.
Yes, Megapoxy 63 is formulated for high-strength bonding of natural stone, including critical miter joints. It provides a non-shrinking bond with excellent tensile and compressive strengths, reducing the risk of joint failure in finished stone work.
No, it is not recommended for bonding over existing coatings. The TDS explicitly states that bonding to coated surfaces results in inferior bond strength. All coatings must be removed to ensure a direct, high-strength bond to the prepared substrate.
Megapoxy 63 achieves a bond strength exceeding 3 MPa on concrete (ASTM D4541). This provides a robust, permanent connection, making it suitable for demanding applications on concrete substrates after proper preparation.
Megapoxy 63 is a hazardous chemical requiring careful handling; it causes skin irritation and serious eye damage. Always wear safety shoes, nitrile gloves, and eye/face protection. Ensure adequate ventilation and avoid skin contact or inhalation.
The minimum cure time for Megapoxy 63 is 24 hours at 25°C. At 15°C, expect 48 hours for minimum cure, while at 35°C, it cures in 12 hours. Plan your work around these temperatures for optimal results and to avoid premature loading.
| Application | Key benefit | Primary trades |
|---|---|---|
| Bonding miter joints in natural stone | Delivers very high-strength, permanent bonds that resist yellowing, crucial for exposed, high-value stone installations. Does not shrink, maintaining precise joint lines. | Stonemasons, Tilers, Benchtop Fabricators |
| Adhering natural stone, bricks, and ceramics to masonry | Achieves bond strengths over 3 MPa on concrete, ensuring durable adhesion even in thin film applications. Superior to concrete in compressive (120 MPa) and tensile (36 MPa) strengths. | Tilers, Bricklayers, Stonemasons |
| Filling holes and voids in stone | Provides a 100% solids, non-shrinking repair that can be coloured with Megapoxy pigment pastes for aesthetic matching. Maintains the structural integrity of the stone. | Stonemasons, Restoration Specialists |
| Repairing chipped or damaged stone edges | Forms a hard, chemical-resistant repair with a Shore D hardness of 89. This restores the edge profile and durability, preventing further damage. | Stonemasons, Repair Technicians |
Prepare surfaces by cleaning, degreasing, and mechanically abrading where required. Ensure substrates are dry, dust-free, and free from coatings before applying the adhesive.
DANGER
Causes skin irritation. May cause an allergic skin reaction. Causes serious eye damage. Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.
Wear safety shoes, protective clothing, nitrile gloves, and eye/face protection (safety glasses). A suitable respirator may be required in poorly ventilated areas. Always wash hands thoroughly after handling, before eating, drinking, or smoking.
Ensure natural ventilation is adequate under normal use conditions. Avoid breathing dust, fume, gas, mist, vapours, or spray.
For poisoning, contact a doctor or Poisons Information Centre (Australia 131 126, New Zealand 0800 764 766).
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, out of direct sunlight and away from foodstuffs and incompatible materials (oxidising agents). Keep containers upright and tightly closed when not in use. Shelf life is a minimum of 2 years in unopened kits. This material is a Scheduled Poison (S5 - Caution) and must be stored, maintained, and used in accordance with relevant regulations. Dispose of contents and containers in accordance with local, regional, national, and international regulations.
Proper surface preparation is critical for Megapoxy 63 to achieve its specified bond strengths and ensure long-term performance.
Surface prep: Lightly abrade the bonding areas. For smooth surfaces, cross-hatching or biscuiting can improve adhesion. The surface must be clean, dry, and free of dust. Ensure pin fixing holes are clean and dust-free.
Primer: Not required. Focus on mechanical preparation and cleanliness.
Surface prep: Concrete surfaces must be free from grease and oil. If necessary, use an industrial-grade degreasing agent. Laitance must be removed by mechanical abrasion or acid etching to expose sound concrete.
Primer: Not required.
Surface prep: All existing coatings must be removed prior to bonding. Bonding to coated surfaces will result in significantly reduced bond strength.
Primer: Not applicable; coatings must be removed.
