Concremate Expanding Anchoring Cement Anchor, patch and lock in place with confidence. Concremate is a high-performance expanding cement designed for rapid, reliable anchoring and structural patching. Mixed to a workable, mortar-like consistency, it expands slightly as it cures to counteract drying shrinkage. That controlled expansion grips embedded items and surrounding material tightly, delivering a secure, long-lasting hold that stands up to strain, stress and vibration. Why choose Concremate Fast turnaround: initial set in about 30 minutes and hard in approximately 1 hour, so many jobs can progress the same day. Expands and grips: engineered expansion of about 0.125% offsets shrinkage and locks into the substrate. High ultimate strength: cures to a finish that becomes harder than standard concrete at 28 days when properly mixed and applied. Versatile application: ideal for anchoring bolts, rails, brackets and fixtures, as well as patching holes, chases and cracks. Durable performance: forms a robust, long-term bond that resists severe mechanical stress and vibration. Where it excels Use Concremate for secure embedment and structural repairs on common mineral surfaces. It is suitable for: Concrete and masonry Brickwork and stone Tiles and terrazzo Plaster and similar mineral substrates Typical projects Anchoring handrails, posts, machine base bolts, threaded rods and heavy brackets Fixing door and window hardware to masonry openings High-pressure grouting under plates, around pipe sleeves and service penetrations Patching voids, chased conduits, spalled edges and impact damage in floors, walls and ceilings How it works Concremate is a mineral-based expanding cement. After mixing with clean water, the paste hydrates and begins to set. A small, controlled expansion during cure offsets natural drying shrinkage. The result is a tight, interference-style fit that increases grip on embedded items and keys the patch into surrounding material. For best results, the material must be able to expand slightly while drying and should not be constrained in a completely sealed cavity. Directions for use Surface preparation: Remove dust, loose material, laitance, oil and contaminants. Roughen smooth surfaces and blow or brush clean. Pre-dampen porous substrates to a surface-saturated dry condition; do not leave standing water. Mixing: Add powder to clean water while stirring until a smooth, lump-free, mortar-like consistency is reached. Mix only what you can place within the working time. Do not over-water. Placement for anchoring: Fill the prepared hole or pocket from the bottom up to avoid entrapped air. Insert the fixture or fastener while the mix is workable and align immediately. Hold steady until initial set. Placement for patching: Tightly pack the mix into the void in layers, compacting each layer to ensure full contact. Strike off and finish the surface as required. Curing: Protect from rapid drying, wind and direct sun during early cure. Avoid vibration or load until the material has hardened. Cleanup: Clean tools and splashes with water while product is fresh. Once hardened, mechanical removal may be required. Good practice tips Plan the job so placement occurs immediately after mixing for best expansion and bond. For deep holes or large voids, place in lifts and compact each lift. Do not confine completely in a sealed cavity; allow space for controlled expansion. Avoid adding sand, cement or other admixtures that can change performance. Performance and durability When correctly mixed and applied, Concremate develops a hard, dense matrix with strong adhesion to mineral substrates and embedded metals. The slight expansion on cure reduces micro-gapping at the interface, improving load transfer and long-term durability. After full cure at 28 days, the set material achieves hardness that exceeds standard concrete, supporting demanding anchoring and patching tasks. Safety and handling Wear suitable gloves, eye protection and a dust mask when mixing and placing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse with plenty of water. Store in a cool, dry place in the original, tightly closed container. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Specifications Product type Expanding cement anchoring and patching compound Form Premixed dry powder Color Grey Mix consistency Mortar-like paste when mixed with clean water Initial set About 30 minutes (conditions dependent) Hard set Approximately 1 hour (conditions dependent) Ultimate hardness Harder than standard concrete at 28 days Expansion Approx. 0.125% during cure Recommended substrates Concrete, brick, stone, tiles, plaster, terrazzo Primary uses Anchoring bolts, rails, brackets and fixtures; patching holes, chases and cracks; high-pressure grouting Cleanup Water while fresh Storage Cool, dry conditions in sealed container What to expect on the job With suitable surface preparation and correct mixing, you can expect a smooth placement, quick set and a dense, high-integrity bond. The expansion action helps lock hardware and patches into place. Protect new work from early movement and moisture loss, then return to service once the hard set has been achieved and the repair or anchorage has reached the necessary strength for your application. Limitations Not for use where the mix cannot expand slightly during cure. Do not apply over active movement joints or flexible substrates. Working and set times vary with temperature, humidity and mix ratio. Note: Always trial on a small, inconspicuous area or non-critical hole to confirm suitability for your specific substrate and conditions.

Designed for Australian conditions, it balances strength, ease of use, and clean application so you can get professional results without special tools. The 5 kg pack is ideal for general work and keeps neatly in a toolbox or caddy. Why choose Davco SMP for your next project Everyday jobs often involve mixed materials and imperfect surfaces. Davco SMP Evo Flexible Tile Adhesive 5 kg has been formulated to wet out well, grab quickly, and cure to a tough finish that resists movement and contact stress. It maintains bond integrity across common temperature swings and has dependable resistance to moisture and most household chemicals. Whether you are fixing, building, sealing, or assembling, this product gives you confidence from first squeeze through final set. Best for Bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies Tiling over existing tiles where movement accommodation is needed Floor and wall applications Suitable surfaces The adhesive works well on the following surface types when properly prepared: Concrete and screeds Fibre cement sheeting Existing glazed tiles after scuffing and cleaning Surface preparation Good preparation is the key to a long lasting repair. Remove loose material, dust, and grease. Wipe glossy areas with methylated spirits or an approved cleaner and allow to dry. On very smooth plastics and metals, lightly roughen with fine abrasive paper to give the adhesive a mechanical key. Dry fit parts first and mark alignment points so you can assemble accurately within the open time. If bonding porous materials, ensure both faces are dry and free of surface chalking. How to use Check fit and plan clamping. Do a trial run without adhesive so you know the order of steps. Apply a thin, continuous bead to one surface. For wide pieces, use a zig zag pattern to maximise wetting. Bring surfaces together within the stated open time of per data on the bag, adjust for weather. Reseat once if needed, then hold steady. Apply even pressure using clamps, tape, weights, or temporary fasteners. Avoid squeezing all adhesive out of the joint. Allow to cure undisturbed. Initial handling strength will develop as the adhesive sets, with a full cure reached based on the chemistry described below. Cure profile Observe open time, bed thickness, and traffic restrictions. The polymer modification gives improved flexibility once cured. Temperature and environmental performance Install in moderate conditions and shield fresh work from wind and direct sun. Avoid application to very cold, sweating, or waterlogged surfaces. For outdoor use protect fresh bonds from rain until the skin has formed and the core has progressed in cure. Once fully cured, the bond resists normal weathering, splash water, and intermittent UV exposure based on the substrate and paint systems used. Clean up and finishing Water clean-up while fresh. Remove haze before it hardens. When cured, excess can be carefully trimmed or sanded. For painted finishes, allow the adhesive to fully cure before priming. Test paint on a small area to confirm compatibility and drying behaviour. Coverage guide Coverage varies with bead size, surface porosity, and technique. As a general guide, a 3 mm bead yields approximately 10 to 12 linear meters per 310 mL cartridge. Smaller packs scale proportionally. Gaps, rough edges, and highly absorbent materials will reduce coverage. Plan an extra margin for offcuts and practice passes. Tips for best results Work within the recommended open time so the adhesive can properly wet the surfaces. Use light clamping pressure to keep parts aligned while maintaining a film thickness for strength. For very porous substrates, apply a thin precoat as a primer layer and allow it to tack before final assembly. Keep joint lines clean by masking edges with painter tape and removing it before the adhesive skins. Where movement or vibration is expected, design the joint to share load across a large area. Troubleshooting Poor adhesion: Check for oil, release agents, or surface dust. Reclean and lightly abrade if necessary. Slow cure: Low temperature and low humidity extend cure time. Maintain moderate conditions for best results. Visible squeeze out: Wipe fresh material with a suitable solvent and a soft cloth. Once cured, trim carefully. Bond line prints through paint: Allow a full cure, then prime and apply thin coats of paint, allowing proper drying between coats. Storage and shelf life Keep the bag closed and dry between uses. Always check the pack for a lot code and use by guidance. Reseal immediately after use and store upright. Dispose of empty containers responsibly. Safety Read the label before use. Wear gloves when handling uncured material. Provide ventilation in enclosed areas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If sensitivity occurs, stop use and seek advice. Do not ingest. First aid directions and detailed handling information are available on the package and the safety data sheet. Frequently asked questions Can I bond dissimilar materials? Yes, provided each surface is clean and sound. Differences in expansion are managed by the adhesive film thickness and the inherent flexibility after cure. Is clamping required? Light clamping improves alignment and final strength. Excessive pressure can starve the joint of adhesive which reduces performance. Is the bond water resistant? Once cured the bond resists splash water and routine humidity. For permanent immersion choose an adhesive designed for underwater service and follow the manufacturer guidance. Planning your job Measure twice and cut once. Dry assemble parts so you can confirm squareness and alignment before adhesive is involved. Keep rags, clamps, and spacers ready. If you are new to the product, test on offcuts to get a feel for bead size and squeeze out. A consistent 1 to 2 mm bond line is a good starting point for most rigid materials. Thicker lines help when surfaces are uneven. Avoid starving the joint by pressing too hard without giving the adhesive a place to reside. Responsible use Choose an adhesive that suits the materials and the environment the finished piece will face. If a joint will be submerged, carry structural loads, or be exposed to strong chemicals, check the technical data sheet for specific guidance. Many general purpose products are perfect for day to day work, while specialised tasks call for a system designed and tested for that environment. Using the right product first saves time, money, and rework. Aftercare and maintenance Adhesive joints are remarkably strong when used correctly. Design repairs so that routine loads are shared across a generous area. Where heavy vibration is present, pair the adhesive bond with appropriate mechanical fasteners. Keep cleaning chemicals mild, and avoid abrasive pads on visible joints. If a bond will be repainted, choose flexible paint where movement is expected, and keep edges sealed to prevent dirt tracking along the bond line. Recycling and disposal Allow empty containers to cure before disposal. Check local council guidance for recycling of plastics and metal cartridges. Never pour uncured product into drains or soil. Wipe tools on scrap material and let residue harden before placing in general waste. Smart handling keeps the workspace clean and reduces environmental impact.

Coverage guide Coverage varies with bead size, surface porosity, and technique. As a general guide, a 3 mm bead yields approximately 10 to 12 linear meters per 310 mL cartridge. Smaller packs scale proportionally. Gaps, rough edges, and highly absorbent materials will reduce coverage. Plan an extra margin for offcuts and practice passes. Tips for best results Work within the recommended open time so the adhesive can properly wet the surfaces. Use light clamping pressure to keep parts aligned while maintaining a film thickness for strength. For very porous substrates, apply a thin precoat as a primer layer and allow it to tack before final assembly. Keep joint lines clean by masking edges with painter tape and removing it before the adhesive skins. Where movement or vibration is expected, design the joint to share load across a large area. Troubleshooting Poor adhesion: Check for oil, release agents, or surface dust. Reclean and lightly abrade if necessary. Slow cure: Low temperature and low humidity extend cure time. Maintain moderate conditions for best results. Visible squeeze out: Wipe fresh material with a suitable solvent and a soft cloth. Once cured, trim carefully. Bond line prints through paint: Allow a full cure, then prime and apply thin coats of paint, allowing proper drying between coats. Storage and shelf life Keep dry and use within shelf life. Always check the pack for a lot code and use by guidance. Reseal immediately after use and store upright. Dispose of empty containers responsibly. Safety Read the label before use. Wear gloves when handling uncured material. Provide ventilation in enclosed areas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If sensitivity occurs, stop use and seek advice. Do not ingest. First aid directions and detailed handling information are available on the package and the safety data sheet. Frequently asked questions Can I bond dissimilar materials? Yes, provided each surface is clean and sound. Differences in expansion are managed by the adhesive film thickness and the inherent flexibility after cure. Is clamping required? Light clamping improves alignment and final strength. Excessive pressure can starve the joint of adhesive which reduces performance. Is the bond water resistant? Once cured the bond resists splash water and routine humidity. For permanent immersion choose an adhesive designed for underwater service and follow the manufacturer guidance. Planning your job Measure twice and cut once. Dry assemble parts so you can confirm squareness and alignment before adhesive is involved. Keep rags, clamps, and spacers ready. If you are new to the product, test on offcuts to get a feel for bead size and squeeze out. A consistent 1 to 2 mm bond line is a good starting point for most rigid materials. Thicker lines help when surfaces are uneven. Avoid starving the joint by pressing too hard without giving the adhesive a place to reside. Responsible use Choose an adhesive that suits the materials and the environment the finished piece will face. If a joint will be submerged, carry structural loads, or be exposed to strong chemicals, check the technical data sheet for specific guidance. Many general purpose products are perfect for day to day work, while specialised tasks call for a system designed and tested for that environment. Using the right product first saves time, money, and rework. Aftercare and maintenance Adhesive joints are remarkably strong when used correctly. Design repairs so that routine loads are shared across a generous area. Where heavy vibration is present, pair the adhesive bond with appropriate mechanical fasteners. Keep cleaning chemicals mild, and avoid abrasive pads on visible joints. If a bond will be repainted, choose flexible paint where movement is expected, and keep edges sealed to prevent dirt tracking along the bond line. Recycling and disposal Allow empty containers to cure before disposal. Check local council guidance for recycling of plastics and metal cartridges. Never pour uncured product into drains or soil. Wipe tools on scrap material and let residue harden before placing in general waste. Smart handling keeps the workspace clean and reduces environmental impact.

Designed for Australian conditions, it balances strength, ease of use, and clean application so you can get professional results without special tools. The 11 kg pack is ideal for general work and keeps neatly in a toolbox or caddy. Why choose Bastion Superlite for your next project Everyday jobs often involve mixed materials and imperfect surfaces. Bastion Superlite Lightweight Tile Adhesive 11 kg has been formulated to wet out well, grab quickly, and cure to a tough finish that resists movement and contact stress. It maintains bond integrity across common temperature swings and has dependable resistance to moisture and most household chemicals. Whether you are fixing, building, sealing, or assembling, this product gives you confidence from first squeeze through final set. Best for Large format wall and floor tiles Substrates where reduced slump is beneficial Renovations that require easy trowelling Suitable surfaces The adhesive works well on the following surface types when properly prepared: Concrete and screeds Fibre cement sheet Existing tiles suitably prepared Surface preparation Good preparation is the key to a long lasting repair. Remove loose material, dust, and grease. Wipe glossy areas with methylated spirits or an approved cleaner and allow to dry. On very smooth plastics and metals, lightly roughen with fine abrasive paper to give the adhesive a mechanical key. Dry fit parts first and mark alignment points so you can assemble accurately within the open time. If bonding porous materials, ensure both faces are dry and free of surface chalking. How to use Check fit and plan clamping. Do a trial run without adhesive so you know the order of steps. Apply a thin, continuous bead to one surface. For wide pieces, use a zig zag pattern to maximise wetting. Bring surfaces together within the stated open time of per data on the bag for open time and adjust for ambient conditions. Reseat once if needed, then hold steady. Apply even pressure using clamps, tape, weights, or temporary fasteners. Avoid squeezing all adhesive out of the joint. Allow to cure undisturbed. Initial handling strength will develop as the adhesive sets, with a full cure reached based on the chemistry described below. Cure profile Observe recommended open time and bed thickness. Allow the adhesive to set before grouting and traffic. Temperature and environmental performance Install in mild weather to ensure predictable curing. Avoid application to very cold, sweating, or waterlogged surfaces. For outdoor use protect fresh bonds from rain until the skin has formed and the core has progressed in cure. Once fully cured, the bond resists normal weathering, splash water, and intermittent UV exposure based on the substrate and paint systems used. Clean up and finishing Clean trowels and buckets with water before the mix hardens. When cured, excess can be carefully trimmed or sanded. For painted finishes, allow the adhesive to fully cure before priming. Test paint on a small area to confirm compatibility and drying behaviour.

Dunlop Multipurpose Floor Leveller is a high-flow, cement-based compound ideal for smoothing and levelling uneven internal concrete surfaces before applying tiles, vinyl, carpet, or other floor coverings. Designed for ease of use, it pours and spreads to form a smooth surface ready for foot traffic and covering in minimal time. It’s perfect for domestic and light commercial applications. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface is sound, dry, and clean. Remove all traces of dust, grease, oil, curing compounds, wax, or any loose particles. New concrete must be fully cured. Mechanically remove surface laitance or contamination. Porous surfaces may require priming to reduce absorption and improve adhesion. Priming (if required): Apply a compatible primer using a broom or roller and allow it to dry before applying the leveller. On extremely porous substrates, a second coat may be necessary. Mixing Instructions: Slowly add the contents of the 5kg bag to approximately 1L of clean water while stirring with a mixing paddle. Mix for 2–3 minutes until a lump-free, smooth consistency is achieved. Do not retemper once the mixture begins to set. Application Instructions: Pour the mixed product onto the floor and spread using a steel trowel or smoothing blade. The product will self-level and settle to a smooth finish. Apply at a thickness of 1–10mm in one application. Protect from foot traffic until it is fully cured. Coverage: Covers approximately 3.5m² at 1mm thickness per 5kg bag. Coverage varies with substrate texture and thickness. Drying Time: Walkable: 4 hours Ready for tiling: 4–6 hours Ready for other coverings: 24 hours Dry times will vary depending on temperature, humidity, and layer thickness. Clean Up: Clean tools and mixing equipment with water immediately after use. Do not allow the product to dry on tools or surfaces. Technical Data: Type: Cement-based self-levelling compound Application Thickness: 1mm to 10mm Working Time: 15–20 minutes Walkable: After 4 hours Final Cure: Up to 24 hours Colour: Grey Shelf Life: 12 months if stored in original, sealed packaging

Dunlop Floor Repairer Rapid Patch Mortar is a high-performance, fast-setting compound ideal for repairing holes, cracks, and uneven surfaces on internal floors. Suitable for use prior to the installation of tiles, vinyl, carpet, or other floor coverings, it delivers a smooth, level finish ready for light foot traffic within 45 minutes and covering applications in as little as 2 hours. Surface Preparation: Ensure the substrate is clean, sound, and free of grease, dust, oil, paint, or other contaminants. Surfaces should be dry and firm. Smooth or sealed surfaces must be roughened or etched. For porous substrates like timber, fibre-cement, or plasterboard, priming may be required. For floors in direct contact with soil, a moisture barrier should be used before applying the patch mortar. Mixing Instructions: Add 5kg of product into approximately 1.5L of clean water in a clean container. Mix thoroughly with a mixing paddle to a lump-free, smooth consistency. Mix only what can be used within 15 minutes. Application Instructions: Apply with a steel trowel to the required thickness (up to 20mm in a single application). Shape and smooth the surface before the material begins to set. For deeper repairs, additional layers can be applied once the initial layer has set. Avoid adding extra water once mixed. Coverage: Approximately 3m² at 1mm thickness per 5kg bag. Coverage varies with surface texture and thickness applied. Drying Time: Initial set: ~45 minutes Ready for coverings (tiles, vinyl, carpet): ~2 hours Final cure: 24 hours (depending on thickness and ambient conditions) Clean Up: Clean tools and equipment immediately with water before the mortar sets.
