Description
Thor Helical Remedial Polyester Resin
Thor Helical Remedial Polyester Resin has been specially formulated as a thixotropic, high strength grout for the permanent anchoring of bolts into concrete or brickwork.
Thor Helical Remedial Polyester Resin is equally suitable for bonding together most materials found on construction site.
Thor Helical Remedial Polyester Resin will, when used correctly, provide a high strength bond, which is waterproof, chemically resistant, vibration proof and stress free.
Product Benefits:
Excellent Adhesion

Application
Preparation:
Holes should be formed by a minimum of 2mm greater diameter than the bolt to be inserted, using rotary percussive drilling techniques.
If it has been necessary to diamond drill the holes, then they should be roughened or under reamed.
Pre-cast holes should have their sides roughened prior to filling.All dust, drilling debris and other contaminants should be removed, bars and bolts should be de-greased and all rust removed.
Application Method:
Remove the cap and protective insert from the cartridge and screw on the static mixer nozzle.
Fit the cartridge into an appropriate applicator gun, such as the , and gradually apply pressure by activating the trigger until material exudes from the end of the nozzle. Stop pressurising and allow the resin to flow until a uniform colour is achieved.
Insert the nozzle into the base of the hole and activate the trigger, removing the nozzle slowly as the hole fills.
Once sufficient resin is in the hole, release the pressure, wipe excess resin from the nozzle and place the stud to be fixed into the hole with a twisting action to ensure full contact between hole side, resin and stud.
Allow the resin to cure fully before loading. Partly used cartridges are reusable.
Remove the mixing nozzle, wipe away surplus resin and replace the nose plug and cap.
