Polyester Resin: an essential resin for crack stitch repairs and anchor bonding

Polyester resin is a versatile, high-strength adhesive widely used in crack stitch repairs and anchor bonding for masonry, concrete, and stone structures. Its durability, quick curing time, and resistance to moisture and chemicals make it an ideal solution for restoring structural integrity in buildings, bridges, and historical monuments.

Commonly used for binding helical bars to brickwork in crack stitch repairs, Strucsol Polyester resin is our styrene based, cost effective, high grade anchor resin suitable for fixing anchors, deformed bar, threaded bar, helical wire to all types of masonry.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This resin is now styrene free! This means that it is now safe for use indoors as it no longer contains the noxious chemicals (styrene) that are harmful if inhaled. There is no change or impact in performance of this vs it's styrenated counterpart. 

Key Uses of Polyester Resin

• Crack Stitch Repairs: Reinforces cracked walls and masonry by bonding stainless steel or helical bars into pre-cut grooves, preventing further deterioration.
• Anchor Bonding: Secures fixings, bolts, and reinforcement bars into substrates, ensuring long-lasting stability for structural elements.

Compatibility: Works seamlessly with brick, stone, and concrete, providing a robust bond even in challenging environments.

Ease of Application: User-friendly and adaptable, polyester resin is suitable for both professional contractors and DIY repairs.

Whether you’re addressing structural cracks or installing anchors, polyester resin delivers reliable performance, minimising downtime and maximising longevity. Ideal for heritage restoration, civil engineering, and general construction, it’s a cost-effective alternative to the much stronger counter part Strucsol EASF Resin.
