Sika AnchorFix®-S

Sika AnchorFix®-S
Universal anchoring adhesive
Construction

Product Styrenated polyester based two part anchoring adhesive.

Description
Uses As a fast curing anchoring adhesive for all grades of:
n Rebars / reinforcing steel
n Threaded rods
n Bolts and special fastening systems
n Concrete
n Hollow and solid masonry

Prior to any application, the suitability of the Sika AnchorFix® Adhesive for the
substrate in terms of the desired bond strength, and for the prevention of surface
staining or discolouration, must be confirmed by testing in a sample area. This is
due to the wide variation of possible substrates, particularly in terms of strength,
composition and porosity:
n Hard natural stone
n Solid rock
Characteristics / n Fast curing
Advantages n Non-sag, even overhead
n Low wastage

Substrate strength (concrete, masonry, natural stone) must be verified.
Pull-out tests must be carried out if the substrate strength is unknown.
The anchor hole must always be clean, dry, free from oil and grease etc.
Loose particles must be removed from the holes.

Application
Conditions /
Limitations
Substrate Temperature 0°C min. / +40°C max.
Sika AnchorFix®-S must be at a temperature of +5°C to +40°C for application.
Ambient Temperature 0°C min. / +40°C max.

Application
Instructions
Mixing Part A : part B = 10 : 1 by volume
Mixing Tools Getting the cartridge ready:

Unscrew and remove the cap

Screw on the static mixer

Place the cartridge into the gun and start application

When the work is interrupted the static mixer can remain on the cartridge after the
gun pressure has been relieved. If the resin has hardened in the nozzle when work
is resumed, a new nozzle must be attached.

Application Method / General Remarks:
Tools
Drilling of hole with an electric drill to the diameter and depth
required. Drill hole diameter must be in accordance with anchor
size.

The drill hole must be thoroughly cleaned with a round brush

(brush at least 3x). The diameter of the brush must be larger than
the diameter of the drill hole.

The drill hole must be cleaned after each cleaning step with a
blow pump or by compressed air, starting from the bottom of the
hole.
Important: use oil-free compressors!
Pump approx. twice until both parts come out uniformly. Do not
use this material. Release the gun pressure and clean the
cartridge opening with a cloth.

Inject the adhesive into the hole, starting from the bottom, while
slowly drawing back the static mixer. In any case avoid entrapping
air. For deep holes extension tubing can be used.

Insert the anchor with a rotary motion into the filled drill hole.
Some adhesive must come out of the hole.
Important: the anchor must be placed within the open time.

During the resin hardening time the anchor must not be moved or
loaded. Wash tools immediately with Sika® Colma Cleaner.
Wash hands and skin thoroughly with warm soap water.

Anchors in hollow blocks:

To fix anchors into hollow materials (bricks or blocks) perforated sleeves must be
used.
Note: with hollow material do not use rotary hammer drills.
Cleaning of Tools Clean and tools and application equipment with Sika® Colma Cleaner immediately
after use. Hardened / cured material can only be mechanically removed.
