Winter version can be used in warmer temperatures for faster curing
Suitable for use in dry or wet substrates and water filled holes
Rapid bonding time enables quick execution of works

Drill hole to the required diameter and depth for rebar size being used.
Clean the drill hole thoroughly with brush and hand pump at least four times before installation
Insert cartridge into gun and attach nozzle.
Dispense to waste until even colour is obtained.
Insert the mixer nozzle to the bottom of the drill hole and inject resin, slowly withdrawing the nozzle as the hole is filled to 70% of its depth.
Immediately insert the rebar, slowly and with slight twisting motion. Remove any excess resin around the hole before it sets and leave it undisturbed until the curing time elapses.
