Vetoanchor EG346
Epoxy resin twin cartridge anchoring grout.
Vetoanchor EG346 is a two-component, styrene-free, pure epoxy-based, high-strength adhesive anchoring system. The system includes injection adhesive in plastic cartridges, mixing nozzles, dispensing tools, and hole cleaning equipment. The product is designed for bonding threaded rod and reinforcing bar hardware into drilled holes in the concrete base and solid masonry materials. Vetoanchor EG346 is available in two packaging twin cartridge systems: 400 milliliters side-by-side cartridges that require a specifically designed injection gun.
Uses
- Anchoring bolts, brickwork, threaded studs, hollow masonry sleeves, threaded inserts, and steel columns into rock, concrete, masonry.
- Permanent installation of reinforcement starter bars, foundation bolts, base plates, balustrading, barriers and safety fences, railway tracks, tie-back anchors, reinforcement doweling abutments, ground anchors for towers, cranes, dock sills, etc.
Advantages
- High grip force, high adhesive force.
- Designed for use with threaded rod and reinforcing bar hardware elements.
- Special application to diamond drilled holes and large bore diameter.
- The product ingredients are odorless and non-toxic.
- Wide application temperature range (0 to 40 °C). u Styrene free.
- Rapid strength gain.
- Cost-effective.
- Excellent physical and mechanical properties.
Usage Instructions
The optimum performance of Vetoanchor EG346 grouts requires rough-sided, dust-free holes. It is recommended to use rotary percussive drills with air pressure. Diamond drilled holes should be under-reamed.
Cast holes should preferably be inverse dovetail configuration. If parallel-sided holes are cast, they should be rough to provide adequate keying.
Brushing the holes and air blowing is a must for all holes; the concrete needs to be dry with a relative humidity of less than 75% before application.
Open the cartridge and remove the red stopper on top. Use Good nozzles after removing the red stopper from the cartridge, and attach the mixing nozzles screwing down tightly. Assemble cartridge into the caulking gun and dispense 2-3 trigger pulls of adhesive to waste until grey color appears with no streaks.
Open the valve and squeeze the handle, so the material is dispensed out of the nozzle until an even, uniform grey color is achieved. Before a new cartridge is introduced into the hole, dispense the first 10 ml or so to waste until the mix is even on color. Initial flow should be disposed of into empty packaging or similar materials. Inject resin into the hole, starting from the bottom of the hole. The material must be injected without creating air pockets.
Insert studs or anchors by pushing the stud into the hole using a slow twisting motion. Wipe away the excess material. Anchor or stud needs to be clean and oil-free. Do not touch studs or anchor until the mixture gels. Do not load the anchor until curing is completed as per the curing timetable.
Do not install anchors when the substrate temperature is less than 0°C.
Do not install anchors when Vetoanchor EG346 temperature is less than 15°C.
At temperatures below 15°C, the product should be warmed or stored in temperatures between 10 and 35 °C for 24 hours before use to improve product flow and cure.
If the gelling time is superseded, use a new static mixer.
Do not cut or shorten nozzles.
If the cartridge is not finished, clean the opening, then put the plug back and cap tightly. To use the cartridge set again, replace the static mixer.
Do not dilute the material with any solvents and/or other chemicals.
Not suitable for use in diamond-cored holes without roughening.
Please ensure the spiral mixer in nozzles.
Do not install into uncured concrete.
Use Good Use nozzles; other nozzles may cause ineffective mixing and adversely affect the material.
