Make sure to pack the interior of the undercap for ground anchor work tightly!

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Non-Corrosion

Are you using the non-corrosive material that’s a staple of KTB ground anchor construction?

Combine both ingredients and shake vigorously. (The KTB specifications say to use a mixer for at least 3 minutes lol)

It doesn't really matter which one you put in first.


TRUSCO Euler 400 mL Blue

I'll pick up an Euler like this at a home improvement store.

If possible, we recommend 500 mL or more.

The reason is that the amount of liquid under the cap is usually about 0.45 mL. (The 8-wire type contains more than that.)

Then, inject as much as possible until it seeps out from the wedge.

Euler becomes sticky and eventually turns into a rubber-like substance on the inside, so it's disposable.

Non-Corrosion

With the Euler, I recommend cutting off the tip to enlarge the opening before use, as this allows the non-corrosion solution to flow through all at once.

Of course, you’ll press it in firmly as you go.

Please fill it until it is full.

 

If you don't fill this up completely, it will lead to rust later on.

Please keep adding more here—don't stop.

After this, use an angle grinder to cut the prestressed steel strand and finish the ends.

 

How to Postpone Head Processing Just a Little Bit

 

It's just that this non-corrosive formula is kind of sticky and hard to use, isn't it?

Products like the Super Flotech Anchor, where both components come together in a single 3M package, are really convenient—and they don't get your hands dirty!

It would be great if an anchor app came along that combined the best features of all the existing ones, lol.

If you give the 3M pack a good squeeze all over, it’s easier to open the dividers inside, right?

 

This is the best filler for anchor head treatment!

By the way, here it is.

 

Proper head treatment is the key to ground anchor construction!

Let's give it our all!

 

See you later.
