K2 Resigrout

Used for high strength corrosion resistant anchoring of bolts and bars from 12 - 25mm diameter into concrete, rock, masonry or brickwork where high speed of installation and early application of load is required. Permanent installation of reinforcement starter bars, foundation bolts, base plates, balustrade, barriers and safety fences, railway tracks, tieback anchors, reinforcement doweling abutments, ground anchors for towers, cranes, dock sills. Description: K2 Resigrout polyester resin grout is a pre measured, two parts, filled polyester resin grouts. After hardening the grout produces anchorages of consistent reproducible values.The versions are: K2 Resigrout is used where the difference between the hole diameter and bar diameter is < 25mm. It is used in overhead or horizontal holes where bar / hole relationship conforms to the product properties. Benefits: Gains Rapid strength Resistant to vibrations and corrosionNon expansiveIdeal for under water placement Standards: K2 Resigrout conforms to BS 4551, BS5080, BS2782 standards Specifications: Hole preparation and formation For best performance of K2 Resigrout rough sided, dust free holes are required. Uses of rotary percussive drills with air or water flushing is recommended. Diamond drilled holes should be under-reamed unless necessary safety factors are incorporated. Cast holes should preferably be inverse dovetail configuration. If parallel side holes are cast they should be rough to provide adequate keying. Bar preparation All bars should preferably be free from grease and flaky rust. Mixing The complete pack of resin and catalyzed filler should be mixed at once in one operation mechanically. When a smooth, even consistency is achieved the grout is ready for use and should be placed well within the gel time of the grout. The premeasured packs should be used in full and do not attempt to mix partial pack components. Installation The calculated volume of grout should be poured steadily into the prepared holes. The anchor bar is then pressed into the hole to the required depth. Slight agitation of the bar will assist in achieving a complete bond. The bar should then be left undisturbed in the required position until the resin is set. Cleaning Mixing drums, pumps, etc. should be cleaned within the pot life of the grout. Precaution At operating temperatures above 40C, the creep of K2 Resigrout polyester resin grout resin under load may become significant. Resin anchors should not be used where structural load bearing performance has to be maintained in anchors subjected to fire conditions. Packaging 2 kg pack Storage The product should be stored away from high temperature. 6 months shelf life when stored below 25C in original unopened containers.
