Resin anchors are all the same……Discuss
According to JCP, it is a common belief that all resin anchors give the same performance and can be used for any application. The UK con-
struction fixings specialists goes on to say, “This is not the case and the JCP range of resin bonded anchors gives the designer and user the
choice of different types of resin systems for different applications and loads”.
The Spin In Capsules with zinc plated, hot dipped galvanised or stainless steel studs
provide a quick and easy method of fixings into concrete. With a European Technical
Approval their performance is assured. Internal threaded sockets are also available to give
a flush finish for attaching a bolt or machine screw. For installing reinforcing bar the JCP
Hammer In Capsules provide the opportunity to use deep embedment depths. By
inserting two capsules into the correct depth hole the loading will be increased, in most
cases to above the strength of a standard reinforcing bar.
The High Load Vinylester injection resin system has a European Technical Approval as
well as the Water Regulations Advisory Service approval for use in contact with potable
(drinking) water. It is an ideal resin where high loads are required in concrete and other
base materials. The Epoxy Acrylate resin is also suitable for concrete and other base
materials and will give good loads and versatility. Polyester and Styrene Free Polyester
resins are more suited for brickwork and masonry but can also be used in concrete
although permanently wet conditions are best avoided.
All resin anchors however, have one thing in common. It is essential that the drilled
hole is cleaned properly by blowing out the dust and brushing out the hole several times.
This ensures that all loose dust and drilling debris is removed not only from the bottom,
but also to the sides of the hole where the resin is required to adhere.
All JCP resin systems are supported by installation information and technical
information which is available on the JCP website and the JCP Technical Manual.
Power presents new
chemical range
Power Fasteners has announced the launch of its improved range of chemical anchors. Here are just some of the products that are included in
the range:
PURE150-PRO & PURE-2K – Pure epoxies.
Pure epoxies are chemical mortars with the highest load-bearing capacity and do not shrink after curing. Powers offers two types
of pure epoxy. PURE-150-PRO has an ETA option 1 approval for three temperature ranges, water filled and dry/wet
holes, normal threaded rods from M8-M30, rebar from Ø8-Ø32, and embedment depths from 4xØ -12xØ.
AC100-PRO & AC150-PRO - Vinylester
Powers offers AC100-PRO and AC150-PRO, two types of vinyl ester mortars that
combine a fast working rate with high load values. AC100-PRO has an ETA option 7 approval for two temperature
ranges, water filled and dry/wet holes, embedment depths from 4xØ-20xØ and anchor rods from M8-M30.
AC150-PRO received an ETA option 7 approval for two temperature ranges, water filled and dry/wet holes,
embedment depths from Ø4-Ø12 and anchor rods from M8-M16.
CT50-PRO – Polyester
Polyester mortars are an economic solution to fasten medium weight applications. They have a short curing time.
CT50-PRO has a German approval for M8 and M10 in solid and hollow brick.
CAPSULE CS PLUS & HAMMER CAPSULES
Powers offers two types of capsules: CAPSULE CS PLUS spinning capsule and HAMMER CAPSULES. The big
difference of capsules compared to cartridges is that the amount of mortar is always a standard linked to the rod
diameter. CAPSULE CS PLUS has an ETA option 8 approval for M8-M24.
