Smith’s Epoxy FRM — Fast Repair Mortar

Smith’s Epoxy FRM is a heavy-duty, 100% solids, trowel-applied epoxy mortar for the toughest concrete repairs — resurfacing eroded floors, rebuilding broken joint walls, and patching deep gouges in heavy-traffic, abusive environments. Built for durability and a fast return to service (heavy forklift traffic in as little as 8 hours), it restores damaged concrete to a hard, impact-resistant surface that stands up to cart and forklift traffic.

Key Features

• 3-component, 100% solids epoxy mortar — trowel applied
• Heavy-duty — 10,500 psi compressive strength, 85–90 Shore D hardness
• Fast return to service — heavy/forklift traffic in as little as 8 hours at 72°F
• High impact and abrasion resistance — excellent rolling-load resistance for cart and forklift traffic
• For repairs ≥ 3/16″ — resurfacing, deep patching, joint-wall rebuilding
• Bonds tenaciously — concrete fails before the bond does
• Low odor, low VOC
• Mix in the container — convenient packaging

What It’s For

• Resurfacing eroded concrete floors (≥ 3/16″)
• Rebuilding broken joint walls and eroded joint edges
• Deep patching — gouges, spalls, and missing sections
• Cove bases — radius and cant coves at wall/floor transitions
• High-traffic, abusive environments — automotive/aviation manufacturing, beverage distribution, food processing, forklift aisleways, warehouses

Repair, Rebuild, Resurface

When concrete damage goes beyond a simple crack — eroded surfaces, broken joint shoulders, deep gouges, or areas that need full resurfacing — you need a mortar with real structural strength. FRM’s 10,500 psi compressive strength and high impact resistance rebuild damaged floors to take heavy traffic again, and its fast cure gets the floor back in service the same day. It can be finished as-is or built into a full coating system with a grout coat and topcoat.
