MAXGRIP Quick setting waterproofing anchoring fluid mortar for anchoring and filling horizontal surfaces - setting anchor bolts, rail & sign posts, parking meters, park seats, bridge railings, safety & hand rails, partitions, balustrades, reinforcing rods and fixtures - Heavy machinery anchoring, hooks, pulleys, flag & light poles.

Description

Maxgrip is a mixture of cements and selected special additives and aggregates. A pourable, cement-base, non-shrinking, quick-setting hydraulic compound.

Uses
Water/Sewer Management, Road/Rail, Construction Building/Swimming Pool Industry, Bridge Building, Councils, Heavy Industry, Mining, Steel, Defence Forces.

Application

Drill holes in sound concrete large enough for head and washer. If concrete is not sufficiently sound, drill deeper. To increase the strength mushroom the base of the hole by tilting the drill. Blow or vacuum out excess dust and wet sides of hole to obtain proper bonding. Place anchor bolts, with washer in hole. Mix enough material to fill the hole, mix with clean water a pancake batter consistency in a small plastic bowl or other suitable container. Pour a little MAXGRIP in the hole and work the bolt up and down a few times to eliminate any air bubbles. Pour in balance of mix from one side to ensure even flow.
MAXGRIP will set in 15 minutes, complete cure after 60 to 90 minutes and will strength as it cures, so allow more curing time for heavy machinery and other large installations.
For cold weather installations, heat hole before using MAXGRIP. Do not add antifreeze solutions to mixing water. Store material in a warm place.

Test Data

• Compressive strenght 7 days - 444 Kg/cm².
• Pullout strength 22 mm bolt in 80 mm hole = 109, 546 Kg/cm².
• Set time l-Vicat - 15 minutes.

Recommendations
Holesize should be 3 x the size of the bolt. This will ensure that the strength of the setting compares to the tensile strength of the mild steel bolt. Depth should be 5 x the diameter of the bolt or post.
