Usage Guidance
Should I use anchor grout or polyester resin?
If the crack was caused by heavy vibration or you're installing replacement wall ties in a cavity wall, then we would suggest polyester resin. Once cured, this will create a waterproof anchor that's resistant to vibrations. For a cost-effective option for crack stitching and lintel repairs, we recommend PermaCEM Anchor Grout.
How much grout is needed per metre length of helical spiral bar?
One kilo of PermaCEM Anchor Grout is required per 1 metre length of helical spiral bar.
