Install & Anchoring

Epoxy Anchor

Also known as: chemical anchor, adhesive anchor, HIT-RE 500, epoxy-set anchor

How epoxy anchors fail

• Cure temperature too low — slow cure, weak bond
• Hole not cleaned of dust before injection
• Wrong drill bit diameter — too large kills bond, too small prevents full embed
• Anchor disturbed during cure window
