AMP-UP™ RB High Performance Rebar Coating

A New Generation of Rebar Coating

AMP-UP™ RB is a single component, self-healing, hybrid epoxy coating designed and optimized to protect reinforcing & structural steel before, during, and after application of concrete. AMP-UP™ RB offers contractors increased ease of application, scheduling flexibility, and drastically extended repair open times (up to 180 days*). 

No more measuring, mixing, and carefully planning open times. AMP-UP™ RB offers unrivaled flexibility for the installing contractor, while surpassing performance requirements for the engineers. AMP-UP™ RB's distinct pink color allows for easy identification of coated areas. 

AMP-UP™ RB - The smarter way to coat rebar. 

*For optimal performance prep surface to SSPC SP-3 or SP-6. 2 coats AMP-UP RB at recommended WFT.

AMP-UP™ RB – High Performance, Easier Application, Extended Repair Open Times

Coating rebar for corrosion protection is common practice in the concrete repair & restoration process. Most products require mixing & measuring of multiple components and give contractors a very small window to apply the repair mortar after the rebar has been coated. 

AMP-UP™ RB offers contractors & engineers the best of both worlds: higher performing corrosion protection & easier application. AMP-UP™ RB is one component, low VOC rebar coating that gives contractors the flexibility to extend open times on repairs (up to 180 days!*).  Using its patented self-healing technology, AMP-UP™ RB responds to any physical damage during the repair open time without the need for manual intervention or touchups. AMP-UP™ RB makes coating & protecting rebar simple for everyone involved, it’s an easy choice. 

*For optimal performance prep surface to SSPC SP-3 or SP-6. 2 coats AMP-UP RB at recommended WFT. 

In the event of damage, microcapsules within the coating are broken, releasing a healing agent that polymerizes at the spot of damage. This autonomous process offers immediate response and protection, mitigates corrosion, and maximizes the coating performance.  

In addition to the self-healing benefits, AMP-UP™ RB has excellent adhesion to both rebar and concrete. Rebar coated AMP-UP™ RB meets the ASTM D7913 standard for rebar pull off adhesion, providing 99.8% of the adhesion measured to bare rebar. AMP-UP™ RB combines high performance corrosion protection, excellent adhesion, and easier application to deliver everything that is needed from a rebar coating.
