Mapei Epoxy Resin Anchoring Adhesive Cartridge, Suitable for Rebar and Threaded Rod Fixings

It is formulated for anchoring into concrete and masonry substrates. For best results, ensure the base material is clean, sound, and free of loose material, oil, or dust before application.

Mapefix EP 385 uses a two‑component system. Mix components A and B thoroughly until a uniform, homogeneous color is achieved. Then apply the mixed adhesive into the drilled hole or onto the fixture as specified for epoxy anchors, insert the fixture, and allow it to cure according to temperature and substrate conditions.

It is suitable for fixing fixtures that require high bond strength, such as handrails, metal rails, brackets, anchors, and other structural or load‑bearing elements to concrete or masonry.

Yes. Mapefix EP 385 is designed to offer strong bonding with resistance to weather conditions and certain chemicals, making it appropriate for indoor and outdoor use where exposure is a consideration.

Wear appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection, and, if needed, a respirator in dusty or poorly ventilated areas). Work in a well‑ventilated area, avoid skin and eye contact with uncured epoxy, and follow the product’s Safety Data Sheet guidance for handling and disposal.

Cure time depends on temperature, humidity, and substrate. Mapefix EP 385 provides fast setting characteristics, with handling strength developing relatively quickly and full strength achieved as curing continues over time. Always refer to the product instructions for exact cure times at your site conditions.

Store Mapefix EP 385 in its original, tightly closed containers in a dry, well‑ventilated place away from heat sources. Shelf life is indicated on the packaging and should be observed to ensure performance remains at specification.

Mapefix EP 385 is positioned for high bonding strength and durability in concrete and masonry, with strong weather and chemical resistance. Other epoxy anchors on Fepy may prioritize different performance aspects such as faster cure times, lower temperature performance, or compatibility with specific base materials. See related product pages for direct attribute comparisons.

Yes. Before applying: 1) prepare the substrate by cleaning and removing all dust, oil, and loose material; 2) ensure the hole is clean and free of debris; 3) mix components A and B thoroughly to a uniform color; 4) apply the adhesive into the hole (or onto the fixture as directed) and insert the fixture promptly to avoid voids; 5) avoid over‑tighting or disturbing the fixture during cure; 6) follow the recommended cure times for your site conditions to achieve full strength.
