Vinylester Injection Adhesive Anchoring System
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AC100+ Gold is a two-component vinylester adhesive anchoring system. The system includes
injection adhesive in plastic cartridges, mixing nozzles, dispensing tools and hole cleaning equipment.
The adhesive is designed for bonding threaded rod and reinforcing bar elements into drilled holes in
concrete and masonry base materials. It can be considered for use in solid base materials as well as
hollow base materials with screen tubes.
GENERAL APPLICATIONS AND USES
Bonding threaded rod and reinforcing bar into hardened concrete and masonry
Evaluated for use in dry and water-saturated concrete (including water filled holes)
Suitable to resist loads in cracked or uncracked concrete base materials
Adhesive system can be installed in a wide range of base material temperatures;
qualified for structural applications in concrete and masonry as low as 14ºF (-10ºC)
Qualified for seismic (earthquake) and wind loading
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
+ Designed for use with threaded rod and reinforcing bar hardware elements
+ Consistent performance in low and high strength concrete
+ Evaluated and recognized for freeze/thaw performance (interior and exterior applications)
+ Evaluated and recognized for a range of embedments
+ Versatile low odor formula with optimized cure time
+ Evaluated and recognized for long term and short term loading (see performance tables)
+ Mixing nozzles proportion adhesive and provide simple delivery method into drilled holes
+ Cartridge design allows for multiple uses using extra mixing nozzles
+ Universal product for concrete and masonry (hollow and solid base materials)
