Grouting – Resin Anchors

Product Code Prefix SM

Key Features The introduction of a water based catalyst in addition to oil based catalyst anchors has provided several key advantages for installed resin bolts. These features included improved mixing quality, encapsulation, consistency and a reduction in formulation cost. The resin anchors are available in the same diameters,lengths and speeds as the FASLOC^® oil based catalyst range. The FASLOC^® water based range incorporates the following features compared to oil based resin: 

• Lower mastic:catalyst ratio – improving mixing quality and consistency.
• Improved rheology – easier push through and improved encapsulation.
• Larger catalyst compartment – improved catalyst compartment mixing and reduced bolt miss.
• More cost effective.
