Customer Reviews for Simpson Strong-Tie SET-XP 8.5 oz. High-Strength Epoxy Adhesive Cartridge with 1 Nozzle and Extension

Tried two tubes and couldn't put enough force on the caulking gun to get it out.

Great product and easy to use just a little pricey.

Had to install a ledger board into a cinder block wall for a deck mounting. Had 12 holes to fill, using Simpsons 3.5 inch "sleeves". Took only 2 tube to fill all 12. Came back the next all holes were tight and we were able to tighten down the ledger board nuts. You do need the HEAVY Duty "caulk" gun, and it is a little messy. Still overall pleased with the outcome.

This may have been an old batch. The mixture stayed white and did not get hard.

Strong Tie is the go to bonding solution for concretec repairs/anchor issues

Product is a good idea and if tubes are fresh no problems. When buying watch out for tubes that are old, check dates on tubes. out of 6 tubes I had tw0 defectives. Pain in the butt to return when you are busy.

Worth trying ,dried very secure and strong hold.great for my outdoor project.

This stuff is super strong and sturdy. Used it to set threaded rods in concrete through 6x6 pressure treated beams. Bolted them down after it set up and this won't be going anywhere.

There was a little wasted material at the tip before the fully mixed material got there but after that an even mixture was maintained. Setting time allowed repositioning for precise fastener location.

It is expensive. It looks like it will work great. I have not used it, yet. I had a work around using Titans instead of allthreads. Talk to your building and safety top dog type person and get a waiver. Some of you reading this may know what i am talking about.

Adhesive works well, but cartridge has NO shelf-life once opened. After a couple of hours nozzle is clogged from hardened material. Comes with a second mixing nozzle, but after used you're done. Also you only are supplied with about 3/4 of material in tube, as the piston always stops at this point. Found this with several tubes used.

I was surprised how few bolts I could glue - only about 5 - making it quite expensive per bolt. This is because (a) the mixer-nozzle holds a large fraction of the total epoxy that cannot be then used, and (b) it looks like a caulk tube, but has much less material in it. If you get this, don't waste too much at the beginning while getting it mixed - of course you need it well mixed, but as soon as it is, start using it.

Bought to anchor bolts in a block wall for a gate. This is one of those things that will take some time to know how it does. If the bolts are stilled anchored in two years it did an excellent job. I have already used some two tube epoxy tubes. The single tube took a lot of force to get it to come out. It did come with two mixing tubes.

Simpson epoxy was spec'd on my job. Worked great, as always

Used to anchor post bolts for a deck. Followed the instructions and the epoxy mixed perfectly. No complaints, had 5 holes to fill, each with 2.5" embedment, figure there was probably enough left for 5 more holes before running out. Looked at the pro level gun that cost 70 bucks and it really doesn't make any since unless you are a professional. For your basic epoxy anchoring needs this does the job.

Can be use with regular dispenser. But still can not pass the other products even from the same manufacture.

this product is excellent. Will recommend to friend.

Must have the right gun for this, but it is, in my opinion, the best epoxy anchoring product out there.
