Consumption
- Consumption depends on anchor diameter, embedment depth, and substrate type. Refer to Sika Technical Documentation Ref: 870 43 07 for design details.
- Pump approximately twice until both components come out uniformly before starting application.
Application Steps
- Cartridge Preparation (300 ml, 550 ml, 850 ml): Unscrew cap → Cut film → Screw on static mixer → Place in dispenser and start application.
- Cartridge Preparation (350 ml, 825 ml): Unscrew cap → Remove cap → Screw on static mixer → Place in dispenser and start application.
- Substrate Quality: Concrete and mortar must be older than 28 days. Verify substrate strength; perform pull-out tests if unknown.
- Hole Preparation: Drill hole to required diameter and depth. Clean hole with blow pump or oil-free compressed air from the bottom (min. 2x). Brush with special steel brush (min. 2x, brush diameter larger than hole). Repeat blow cleaning (min. 2x). Hole must be clean, dry, and free from oil and grease. Clean threaded rods and reinforcement bars thoroughly.
- Priming: Pump adhesive twice until both parts come out uniformly. Release gun pressure and clean cartridge opening with a cloth.
- Injection: Inject adhesive from the bottom of the hole while slowly drawing back the static mixer. Avoid entrapping air. Use extension tubing for deep holes.
- Anchor Insertion: Insert anchor with a rotary motion into the filled hole within the open time. Some adhesive must come out of the hole. Do not move or load the anchor during curing time.
- Cleaning: Clean all tools immediately with Sika® Colma Cleaner. Wash hands with warm soap water. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
