Areas of Application
- Rebar Starter
- Insert Plates
- Foundation bolts
- Tie bars
- Anchoring rails for overhead cranes
- Anchors in docks
Method of Application
- Surface Preparation:
The areas should be marked for fixing the anchors priors
to start drilling.
Holes are to be drilled in to the concrete using rotary
percussive drill machine, ensuring the sides of the hole is
rough enough for proper anchorage. During the drilling
operation, care must be taken that the drilled hole is shaped
preferably to a dovetail configuration. In case, the sides
are parallel inside the drilled holes, roughening for adequate
anchorage must provide sufficient key.
- BAR PREPARATION
All bars should preferably be degreased and all flaky
rust removed.
- MIXING:
The complete pack of resin and catalysed filler must
be stirred individually in individual container. The entire
contents must be emptied in one container and mixed
mechanically with a slow speed stirrer till a smooth,
even consistency, homogeneous mix is obtained. The
mixed grout material must be placed within the gel
time of the grout.
Do not attempt to mix partial pack components.
- INSTALLATION
DR. FIXIT ANCHORFIX polyester resin grout S
The grout material is mixed in required volume based
on the calculation and it is poured steadily into the
prepared holes. The anchor bar is placed in the hole
to the required depth and hold in position till the time
the position is not disturbed.
The anchor bar is then slightly agitated holding bar in
position to achieve complete bond. The bar
should then be left undisturbed in the required position
until the resin is set.
- DR. FIXIT ANCHORFIX polyester resin grout P
The mixed grout must be injected to the rear of the
hole to avoid air entrapment. The thixotropic nature of
the mix will prevent significant flow of resin out of the
hole.
- CLEANING
Any mixing drums, pumps, etc. should be cleaned
within the pot life of the grout with a suitable cleaning
agent.
- FACTORS INFLUENCING ANCHOR STRENGTH:
The high strength obtained by DR. FIXIT ANCHORFIX
exhibits strong anchors to be created. Ultimate
strength is determined by:
• Strength of embedded material
• Length of grout mix bond to bar
• Hole preparation and formation
• Type of the bar
• Dimension of bar
Precautions & Limitations
- Depth of installation must be calculated for better anchorage within the concrete, to ensure the shear stress
developed is within permissible stresses.
- Part mixing is not allowed. Material to be mixed and used in one operation after opening the container.
- The creep of the mixed grout under loading may be significant at temperatures of 40°C and higher.
- Wastage factor to a maximum of 25% may be considered during application.
- When the area is under fire safety regulations, DR. FIXIT ANCHORFIX should not be used where the structure
has to maintain the similar performance as parent material.
- The areas of application must be well ventilated and no naked flames allowed.
- Hand gloves must be used while using the resin anchor grout. In case of contact with the skin, it must be
washed immediately with soap and water thoroughly. In case of contact with eye, immediately wash with plenty
of water and seek medical attention.
