Megapoxy 69 is a two-part, non-sag epoxy adhesive designed for the jobs that can't afford to fail. Engineered for professional trade use, it delivers exceptional structural bond strength for a huge range of applications, from civil engineering projects to high-end architectural fabrication. Its translucent gel consistency makes it incredibly versatile, ideal for bonding metals, concrete, masonry, structural timber, and natural stone. Megapoxy 69 is the go-to solution where superior strength, impact resistance, and long-term durability are non-negotiable.
The formulation provides a simple 1:1 mix ratio and a smooth, creamy texture that is easy to work with, whether you're filling voids, anchoring fittings, or executing precision joinery. It cures to form a bond that is often stronger than the substrates themselves, providing absolute certainty and allowing you to stand behind your work with confidence.
Repairing and strengthening rotted or split timber chords on a heritage-listed structure. The solution must provide immense structural integrity without altering the bridge's appearance and be fast-setting to minimise traffic closure time.
After removing all damaged timber, Megapoxy 69 is used to seal all large holes and splits. Its non-sag gel consistency ensures it fills every void, while its high compressive strength restores structural integrity. The adhesive cures to form a bond stronger than the original timber, ensuring a durable, long-lasting repair that stands up to the elements.
For a complete system repair on load-bearing timber, consider using Megapoxy 108 as a pourable epoxy grout into prepared voids after sealing with Megapoxy 69. This combination provides maximum strength and reinforcement.
Assembling high-value granite or marble fabrications requires a permanent, invisible bond that will not fail under stress. The adhesive must be strong enough to handle dissimilar materials, like bonding stone countertops to metal frames, without sagging or discolouring.
Megapoxy 69's translucent finish and non-sag properties make it the perfect choice. It holds heavy components in place on vertical surfaces during cure, and its gel consistency allows for precise application. The resulting 70MPa compressive strength guarantees a structural bond that provides absolute certainty for high-end installations.
Ensure all surfaces are mechanically abraded and thoroughly degreased before application. Even pressure should be applied during the initial cure to ensure a minimal, consistent bond line for the best aesthetic and structural result.
Megapoxy 69 has a minimum cure time of 48 hours at 15°C. In cooler conditions, like a Melbourne winter morning, you should plan for a two-day cure before the bond is subjected to significant loads. The minimum application temperature is 10°C; applying it below this will significantly extend cure time and may compromise final strength.
Absolutely. This is a core application, but professional surface preparation is critical. The steel must be grit blasted or mechanically abraded to bright metal, then degreased. The concrete must be free of laitance, grease, and oil. This is best achieved by grinding or scabbling, followed by a thorough clean to ensure a sound, dry surface for maximum adhesion.
Yes, Megapoxy 69 is ideal for structural applications in marine environments. The cured epoxy system has excellent resistance to water and chemicals. For it to be fully effective, the substrate (like timber or fibreglass) must be completely dry and properly prepared before application to ensure a permanent, waterproof bond that won't delaminate.
Application / Use Case | Key Benefit | Primary Trades |
---|---|---|
Structural Metal Bonding | Achieves tensile bond strength of 30MPa for permanent, load-bearing connections that are resistant to impact and vibration. | Civil Engineers, Fabricators |
Timber Joinery & Repair | Non-sag gel fills gaps and cracks completely, creating waterproof bonds that are stronger than the timber itself. | Carpenters, Joiners, Remedial Contractors |
Granite & Marble Assembly | Translucent gel creates discreet, high-strength bonds for premium stone fabrications and installations. | Stonemasons, Furniture Manufacturers |
Concrete Repair & Anchoring | Bonds tenaciously to prepared concrete for high-strength crack repairs and anchoring of starter bars and fixings. | Remedial Contractors, Builders |
Proper surface preparation is non-negotiable for achieving the specified bond strength. All substrates must be structurally sound, clean, dry, and free of any contaminants.
Mechanically abrade by grinding or scabbling to remove laitance and expose a clean surface. Remove all dust.
Grit blast or grind to a bright metal finish, then immediately solvent wipe with an industrial degreaser to remove all residues.
Combine Part A and Part B in a 1:1 ratio by volume. It is essential that this ratio is measured accurately.
Mix thoroughly with a spatula or mechanical mixer until a uniform, light yellow colour is achieved. Pay close attention to scraping the sides and bottom of the mixing container to ensure all material is fully combined. Poor mixing will result in a weak bond and may prevent the product from curing correctly.
Apply the mixed gel to the prepared surfaces using a trowel or spatula. For bonding applications, press the surfaces firmly together to ensure full contact. For repairs, work the material into the void to eliminate air pockets.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields and impervious gloves (nitrile rubber recommended). Wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Use in a well-ventilated area. Natural ventilation should be adequate under normal use conditions. Avoid breathing vapours.
For all medical advice, contact a Doctor or the Poisons Information Centre (Australia: 13 11 26).
Surfaces must be completely free from grease, oil, and surface laitance. Degrease with a heavy-duty industrial cleaner. The surface laitance must then be removed via mechanical abrasion such as scabbling, grit blasting, or grinding. If this is not possible, acid etching may be performed. Allow the surface to dry for a minimum of 24 hours before application.
Adhesion is achieved through correct surface preparation. Ensure the concrete is structurally sound and surface dry for a tenacious bond.
For maximum bond strength, metal surfaces should be grit blasted to an AS CK 9.4-1964 Class 3 finish. If grit blasting is not practical, mechanically abrade the surface to a clean, bright finish using grinders or sanders. Immediately after abrasion, degrease the surface by flooding with an industrial grade solvent. Wire brushing is not a substitute and will only provide minimal adhesion.
A direct bond to a clean, abraded, and degreased metal surface provides the highest performance.
Timber should be clean, dry, and free from dust, oils, or any surface contaminants. For structural joinery, ensure timber is sound and free from rot. Abrading the surface with a coarse-grit sandpaper can improve mechanical keying, especially on dense hardwoods. Remove all sanding dust before application.
Megapoxy 69 is designed to bond directly to prepared timber surfaces. Ensure the timber is below its fibre saturation point for best results.
