Fosroc has developed Conbextra EUW, a low viscosity epoxy injection grout that is water insensitive, to repair cracks in hydraulic structures located underwater or in wet areas. Conbextra EUW has high strength and low creep characteristics making it suitable for filling cracks between 0.25 mm to 10 mm or reinstating areas over 10 mm. It can also be mixed with sand for repairs and is being used successfully in structures like bridge piers, piles, canals and dams.
