I plan on repairing the floor of a warehouse... definitely will use this to secure the rebar.
You should maybe mention to make sure the holes are blown out of any drilling dust to ensure adhesion
Good point!
I use water, then days later do the setting.
@@onjofilms Even better solution if you can afford to wait!
Yes that can work@@onjofilms
Used your product today, works great
Right on!
Thank you. What did you mean by wiring in the basket at the end of the video? I’m trying to create a cement pillar on top of an existing cement slab which will extend about 2 1/2 feet upwards and perhaps 12 inches diameter in order to mount a gazebo on top of the pillars. After gluing down the rebar, do I need to wire together a rebar basket for optimal strength within the pillar?
Bit of an engineering question here, but generally speaking it's best practice to include a rebar cage (aka "basket") if you're pouring a column, especially one of that size.
0:29 so rapid set is STRONGER than high strength??
Correct! A bit counter-intuitive...

I plan to extend a concrete deck post and use 1/2 rebar and a 12" sono tubue. Do I need to use this epoxy or can I just drill a 1/2 hole and stick in the rebar and fill the sonotube with concrete?
Actually epoxying the new 1/2" rebar into the old deck post would really be preferable, especially in a structural application like you're describing.
@@SakreteOfficial Thanks.
Does it works in adobe houses? May I use epoxy to secure rebar in adobe build wall? No other anchors are working well.
Should work well, but give our Tech Team a call at 866-SAKRETE to discuss this one in detail!
Great but better to tell people to clean out the dust in the hole thoroughly
Great point - we'll add that callout!
Where can I get information on how big the hole needs to be for any particular size threaded rod? I cant find anything on your website under both of these products. It just shows how to use them under the "technical data sheet."
That's a pretty technical question that is going to vary quite a bit based on your application...believe you're looking at ACI 355.4 for the precise answers.
However, as a rule of thumb:
Hole diameter: 3x to 4x the diameter of the rod
Hole depth: 8x to 12x the diameter of the rod
So, a 3/8" threaded rod would require a minimum 1.125" wide and 3" deep hole.
@@SakreteOfficial interesting. I’ve never read anywhere that the diameter of the hole needs to be 3 to 4 times the diameter of the threaded rod. Every other epoxy manufacturer states right around 1/8” bigger than the rod you are using. That’s crazy to have 2.5” wide hole for a 5/8” rod. I have heard the depth needs to be upwards of 5-8x the diameter of the rod.
The hole for the rebar in the video is not 3x to 4x the rebar diameter. Maybe 10% larger?
@@francop962 Thats how they sell you 10 tubes of this stuff
@@francop962lol
Does it rust metal like normal cement / concrete does?
Nope - this is specifically engineered to be non-reactive with steel.
Show the product brother👍
It's not much to look at...but we'll take that advice for the next time we shoot a video on this stuff!
Lol, I’m guessing I was wanting to read the label🥴.
Thanks!!
dont need a guitar solo to sell me anchoring epoxy
Yea, but the guitar solo was MUCH cooler than the track that the string quartet sent in.
