Epoxies find many applications in industry, especially on the engineering side. Grouting of bolts into concrete or rock surfaces, either to strengthen a rock face or for fixing of heavy machinery, is a common application. Such adhesives are usually filled systems, often using reactive hardeners to achieve rapid setting. Epoxy systems for horizontal grouting will usually be thixotropic to prevent the adhesive from slumping or flowing out (Section VI. D).

Crusher backing epoxies are used to fill the gap between the replaceable liners and the outer housing in industrial crushers. These products have conflicting requirements: fast setting but with low exotherm even in large volumes, low viscosity for easy pouring but with minimal settlement of fillers. In addition, they must have good impact resistance, negligible shrinkage, and be easy to remove when the liners are replaced.
