Description
Product Overview
Hilti’s HIT-RE 500 V3 is a premium, waterproof epoxy adhesive formulated for demanding construction and renovation projects. Packaged in a 11.1 fluid ounce (328 ml) cartridge, the medium‑viscosity liquid delivers a high‑strength bond that resists moisture, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations. The epoxy is compatible with a wide range of substrates, including ceramic tile, concrete, steel, and other metal surfaces, making it a versatile choice for both new installations and repair work. Its fast‑drying characteristic reduces cure time, allowing tradespeople to complete jobs more efficiently while maintaining structural integrity. The product meets rigorous industry standards for durability and safety, and it is supported by Hilti’s reputation for quality engineering.
Usage
Designed for professional use, this epoxy adhesive excels in environments where water resistance and load‑bearing capacity are critical. Typical applications include tile flooring in bathrooms and kitchens, anchoring metal fixtures to concrete walls, and bonding structural components in outdoor construction where exposure to rain or humidity is expected. The cartridge dispenser ensures precise application, minimizing waste and mess. Users should clean and prime surfaces, mix the two components according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and apply the adhesive within the recommended working window. After placement, the fast‑dry formula achieves initial set in minutes, with full cure reached within 24 hours, depending on ambient conditions.
