Step 1: Drilling the Hole
• Drill the hole in the base material (concrete, brick, stone, etc.) to the specified diameter and depth based on the anchor size.
• For hollow base materials, use nylon sleeves to retain the resin and support the anchor rod.

Step 2: Cleaning the Hole
• Blow out the dust using a blow-out-pump or air compressor.
• Brush the hole with a steel brush to remove loose particles and debris.
• Blow again to ensure the hole is completely clean and dry.
• Repeat the blow-brush-blow cycle at least twice for best results.
This is one of the most critical steps. Poor cleaning = weak bonding!

Step 3: Injecting the Resin
• Remove the cartridge cap and attach the static mixing nozzle firmly.
• Load the cartridge into a compatible high-thrust manual or pneumatic dispenser and start dispensing.
• Discard the first 10~20cm (4~8 inches) of extruded resin, which may not be fully mixed.
• Inject resin from the bottom of the hole upward, pulling the nozzle out slowly to avoid air gaps.
• Fill about 2/3 to 3/4 of the hole with resin.

Step 4: Inserting the Anchor Rod
• Insert the threaded rod, rebar, or bolt with a slow, twisting motion to ensure full contact between resin and steel.
• Do not move or remove the anchor after insertion.

Step 5: Curing Time
• Refer to the product's technical data sheet (TDS) for gel and full curing times.
• Do not apply any load or stress to the anchor until it has fully cured.
• In colder conditions, curing may take longer. Always verify based on the resin's specifications.

How to Use Chemical Anchors - Proper Installation Is Key to Safety and Performance

Correct handling and installation of chemical anchors is not just about construction quality. It directly impacts the long-term safety and structural integrity of your project. Watch our installation video to learn the essential steps, best practices, and expert tips to ensure a successful anchoring process.

➤ Application Notes for Chemical Anchor and Rebar Installation

• Suitable for concrete, hollow brick, perforated brick, lightweight block.
• For hollow brick, using a nylon sleeve ensures the resin forms a solid plug and prevents expansion cracks.
• High-temperature or low-temperature variants are available for special conditions.
• Always check the compatibility of the resin with the base material and anchor type.
• Always follow engineering specifications or local building requirements for minimum spacing and edge distance to avoid concrete cracking or load reduction.

• Using incorrect drill diameter or depth
• Inadequate hole cleaning (most common failure cause)
• Not discarding unmixed resin at the beginning
• Installing in wet or water-filled holes with incompatible resin
• Moving the rod before curing is complete
• Using a standard gun instead of a high-thrust dispenser (leading to poor mixing)

• Blow-out pump or compressed air for hole cleaning.
• Steel brush for debris removal.
• High-thrust manual or pneumatic dispenser (match cartridge size).
• Gloves, goggles, and proper personal protective equipment.

✓ Hole drilled to correct diameter & depth
✓ Hole fully cleaned (blow–brush–blow cycle)
✓ Resin injected bottom-up with no air pockets
✓ Curing time fully respected before loading

Proper Installation of Chemical Anchors Requires Trained Professionals

To ensure structural safety and long-term durability, chemical anchor installation should be performed by trained and competent professionals. While our products are designed for ease of use, installers must strictly follow technical documentation and standard procedures, including drilling, hole cleaning, resin injection, anchor insertion, and curing. For structural, heavy-load, or seismic applications, it is essential to comply with local engineering codes and perform proper design calculations with qualified engineers. Load capacity depends on multiple factors, including base material condition, embedment depth, installation quality, and curing. Consulting a certified engineer before applying service loads ensures the anchoring system meets safety and performance requirements, providing professional-grade reliability and confidence in your project.

Pre-Installation Anchor Pull-Out Test - Improve Rebar Anchoring Quality

We strongly recommend conducting a trial installation or pull-out test under actual jobsite conditions to verify performance before proceeding with full-scale application. This is especially important when working in extreme temperatures, on wet or damp substrates, with hollow base materials, or on projects that are structural or seismic-critical. Performing these tests ensures the anchor's reliability and helps prevent potential installation failures.
