FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

  • Fastening for high concrete loads, smaller spacings between fixings and reduced edge distances.
  • Clean, agile and simple application with hammer adapter.
  • Excellent for applications with dynamic loads.
  • It can be applied to both dry and wet holes.
  • Possibility of composing ampoules for different applications.
  • Fast healing.

MAIN APPLICATIONS

  • Installation of machinery, engines and equipment.
  • Anchoring metal structures and parts.
  • Restoration and structural reinforcement of concrete beams and columns.

(1) Minimum depth. (2) The values obtained are based on the average of tests and technical specifications, using ASTM A193 B7 rods and 30MPa concrete.
Attention: these values are ultimate loads, always use the safety coefficient. For more information, see the Technical Data section on page 135.
(3) Recommended minimum distance, for smaller distances consult the technical department. (4) Values valid for ASTM A193 B7 rods / ASTM A194 2H nuts.
