Trying to Bond Stone to Concrete is extremely difficult to say the least, why so? There are certain reasons, but primarily the composition of the concrete and the porous nature of the stone create an almost impossible environment to bond Stone to Concrete.

 

The products available on the market for Stone/Concrete bonding are sparse, and the ones that are available are epoxy type, which are two component. These epoxy adhesives do not perform adequately for Stone or Concrete bonding, for a couple of reasons. Firstly, epoxies are temperamental in respect that if two components are not mixed in exact measurements they will fail. Secondly, they are slow to cure, in some case up to seven days. Thirdly, they lack flexibility, a real disadvantage when bonding Stone to Concrete because there is a lot of movement due to temperature/climate change. 

 

The only product effective enough for bonding Stone to Concrete is the very unique Power Grab N Bond. This incredibly pioneering product, in the field of construction adhesives will bond Stone to Concrete immediately without the need for any supports. Power Grab N Bond is based on our unique CT1 sealant and construction adhesive, but is a polymer product that has been scientifically charged in order to create an immediate attachment. Not only will it create a formidable bond quickly with Stone to Concrete, but will remain flexible ensuring a permanent bond. 

 

Not only will Power Grab N Bond successfully bond Stone to Concrete but Stone to Metal, Stone to Wood, Tiles to Stone, the possibilities and applications are endless. The Power Grab N Bond can even perform when Stone or Granite flags have to be bonded vertically, amazing but true!
