Product Details
A high-strength two-part epoxy adhesive developed specifically for bonding granite tombstones, memorial stones, and granite installations — trusted by tombstone manufacturers and stonemasons across South Africa.
VUSGRIP is a professional two-part epoxy adhesive formulated for permanent structural bonding on granite and natural stone. Consisting of a resin and hardener mixed before use, VUSGRIP delivers a bond that cures harder and stronger than standard adhesives — making it the reliable choice for tombstone fabricators and granite installers who cannot afford bond failure on installed work.
What Is VUSGRIP Used For?
- Bonding granite tombstone bases, headstones, and memorial slabs
- Setting granite tombstone foundations and plinths
- Laminating granite slabs for tombstone edge build-ups and thickness increases
- Repairing cracks, chips, and breaks in granite memorial stones
- Bonding granite pieces to concrete bases and masonry substrates
- General granite stone bonding on fabrication and installation sites
Product Features
- Two-part epoxy system — resin and hardener mixed before use to activate full bond strength
- Stronger than the stone itself — when correctly mixed and applied, the cured epoxy bond is stronger than the granite it joins
- Permanent water-resistant bond — fully cured bond resists moisture and weathering, essential for outdoor tombstone installations exposed to the South African climate
- Suitable for vertical and horizontal surfaces — bonds tombstone faces, bases, plinths, and horizontal slab surfaces
- Room temperature cure — no specialist equipment required, cures at ambient temperature on site or in the workshop
- VCT branded product — produced under the Vus Cutting Technology brand
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I mix VUSGRIP? Mix the resin and hardener in the ratio specified on the tub label until a uniform consistency is achieved. Incorrect mixing will reduce bond strength — always follow the tub instructions.
How long does VUSGRIP take to cure? Working time and cure time vary with ambient temperature and are specified on the tub label. Higher temperatures accelerate curing; cooler conditions slow it down.
Can VUSGRIP be used on outdoor tombstones? Yes. VUSGRIP is water and weather resistant when fully cured, making it well suited to outdoor tombstone installations and memorial stonework exposed to rain and temperature changes.
How should I prepare the surface before applying VUSGRIP? Surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, and loose material. Proper surface preparation is critical to achieving maximum bond strength on granite.
