FAQ
It is not recommended for any application where there may be a sustained tensile load, including overhead applications
For anchoring applications, concrete should be a minimum of 21 days old prior to anchor installation.
No, it does not adhere to PTFE, polyethylene, or polypropylene.
Application temperatures range should be between +4 °C (40 °F) and +43 °C (110 °F). When ambient temperature falls below +21 °C (70 °F), condition the adhesive to +21 °C (70 °F) to +24 °C (75 °F).
255 mL (8.6 oz) tube yields :
- 6 holes when anchor diameter is 1.6 cm (⅝ in), hole diameter is 1.9 cm (¾ in) and hole depth is 14.3 cm (5⅝ in)
- 11 holes when anchor diameter is 1.3 cm (½ in), hole diameter is 1.6 cm (⅝ in) and hole depth is 11.7 cm (4⅝ in)
- 22 holes when anchor diameter is 1.0 cm (⅜ in), hole diameter is 1.3 cm (½ in) and hole depth is 9.0 cm (3½ in) NOTE: Hole diameter should be 0.3 cm (⅛ in) larger than the anchor diameter and the hole depth should be a minimum of 9 times the anchor diameter
NOTE: Hole diameter should be 0.3 cm (⅛ in) larger than the anchor diameter and the hole depth should be a minimum of 9 times the anchor diameter.
Cure time to ultimate strength is 10 hours at +24 °C (75 °F) and 8 hours at +43 °C (110 °F). Actual cure time is affected by temperature and product amount used: higher temperatures and larger volumes of material used cure faster.
Hole diameter should be 0.3 cm (⅛”) larger than the anchor diameter and the hole depth should be a minimum of 9 times the anchor diameter.
- For best results, use a caulking gun with a minimum 12:1 mechanical power. Inexpensive guns will not push the material through the nozzle.
- Load the cartridge assembly into a caulking gun.
- Unscrew the cartridge cap and remove the nozzle plug.
- Attach the static mixer nozzle. Dispense mixed paste to waste until a uniform colour is achieved (at least 5 mL) and then directly onto the work surface or into the pre-cleaned hole.
- When filling holes, start from the back; be careful not to leave any air pockets or voids while filling. Use the mixed paste within 20 minutes or insert the bolt into the filled hole within 5 minutes of application.
- To achieve optimum performance, surfaces and holes should be dust-free and cleaned of all surface contaminants such as grease, oil, water, or dirt.
- Scuffing, wire brushing or sanding the surface prior to cleaning helps ensure a good bond. Care should be taken to remove all loose debris from the drilled hole using a suitable blower or vacuum before applying.
