Champion Epoxy Adhesive

The Champion Epoxy Adhesive system is a two-part adhesive (1-to-1 mix ratio), epoxy resin system, designed to permanently bond fittings and joints of fiberglass reinforced epoxy conduit. It is also designed for use with pultruded polyester and vinyl ester components. Each cartridge system contains resin, hardener and one plastic static mixer. An adhesive gun and mixing tip is required for applying the adhesive (ordered separately). If a faster setting adhesive is desired, there is a Champion Mix® adhesive available that gels much faster. The “Fast Gel” adhesive can be specified by adding the suffix “-FG” to the item numbers. Because the “Fast Gel” adhesive sets up quicker, additional mixing tubes may be required. The epoxy adhesive is available in two convenient dispensing tube sizes: 250 ML and 600 ML (2 – 300 ML tubes side-by-side). The CM-250 & CM-250-FG adhesive tubes utilize a high ratio standard caulk gun that can be purchased at any local retail store.

Adhesive Gun

Champion Fiberglass adhesive guns are only available for the 600 ML adhesive tube sizes. The 250 ML adhesive size utilizes a high ratio standard caulk gun that can be purchased at any local retail store.

Instructions

Learn how to join fiberglass conduit to fiberglass as well as PVC 40 and 80 conduit.

Champion Fiberglass® adhesive includes an adhesive tube and a static mixer tip. Adhesive is supplied without the adhesive application gun which may be purchased separately.

Step 1

To use the adhesive, first prepare the conduit. Cut the end of the conduit with a diamond tip chop saw blade or portaband saw.

Step 4

To apply the adhesive, insert the cartridge into the adhesive gun. Next, place the static mixer onto the cartridge. Prime the cartridge by pumping the adhesive gun to fill the mixer.

Step 2

Next, using 60 grit Emery cloth, sand the inside of the coupling and outside of the conduit to the depth of the coupling. The conduit should be sanded so that the sheen is removed from the conduit.

Step 5

Apply the adhesive at least 1/4 of an inch back from the end of the conduit in a zigzag pattern. Then twist the coupling onto the prepared conduit.

Step 3

Use a rag to clean any loose materials, oil, and dirt from the conduit area to be glued.

Step 6

Smooth any excess adhesive with a spatula or glove finger. After a few minutes it will gel and will be fully cured several minutes after that.
