Pourable Anchoring Grout
 
PRODUCT INFORMATION: POURABLE ANCHORING GROUT
   
DESCRIPTION FEATURES
   
Alset pourable grout is a 2 component high strength rapid cure pourable site mixed anchoring system based on a high performance free flowing Polyester resin formula. It is a 2 pack System comprising a liquid Polyester resin and a powerful graded aggregate filler containing fine graded silica sand and chemical activator catalyst which when mixed from a liquid high strength gain grouting compound.
  • High early strength gain
  • Flexible system for variable applications
  • Rapid cure
  • Vibration resistant
  • High chemical resistance
  • Imparts no expansion stresses on the base material
  • Suitable for close to edge and reduced anchor centre fixing
  • Corrosion resistant
 
WHERE IT IS USED HARDENING TIME
   
Alset pourable grout is specifically designed for heavy duty anchoring of rebar, starter bars, dowels, anchor studs, holding down boits, threaded bars, ground anchors and sockets into vertically downward drill holes and voids in reinforced and non-reinforced concrete, masonry, rock and stone. It is particularly suited to applications where drill holes are considerably larger than the anchors, deep holes, irregular voids and pockets. It is also suitable for rapid forming of high strength bearing and foundation pads and grouting of voids for structural baseplates, machinery bases, barriers, rail and crane track systems.

Installation
  • Drill hole to correct diameter and depth. Diamond cored drill holes should be roughened prior to injection.
  • Clean drill hole thoroughly using a wire brush and remove all dust using a blow out pump or airline.
  • Ideally for optimal performance, mix a full pack of resin and the filler component in one operation, adding the filler slowly in the supplied tub either manually or mechanically, using a resicon mixer paddle and slow speed drill. On final addition of the powder continue to mix for a further 2 minutes to a smooth even consistency. If mixing part volumes a 3 : 2 ratio of filler to resin should be used.
  • Pour in the prepared drill hole or void until 1/3 to 1/2 full (dependant on application) ensuring all air pockets are removed on filling.
  • Insert clean fixing with a rotating motion until resin can be seen at the mouth of the hole, remove any excess immediately.
  • Leave undisturbed until cured and then attach fixture and torque to required setting.
  • Clean all tooling using a suitable solvent cleaner before gel times have elapsed.
 
Storage   Important
Store in a dry area between 5°C and 25°C. Do not expose to direct sunlight. Storage at higher temperatures will reduce the shelf life.
