Its formulation is designed for <br />fast anchoring of railings, bolts and posts in concrete substrates. <br />Typical Applications: <br />• Railings <br />• Posts <br />• Anchor bolts <br />• Seating bolts <br />Advantages: <br />• High strength <br />• Requires only the addition of water <br />• Pourable consistency <br />• Fast setting <br />• Not effected by wet environments <br />• Does not contain gypsum <br />Substrate Preparation: <br />• Concrete must be sound fully cured, hardened and of load bearing <br />capacity. <br />• Drill holes a minimum of 3 times the diameter of the bolt or post. Holes <br />must be large enough to allow material to flow between the anchor bolt <br />and the wall of the hole. <br />• Hole depth should be 2 - 4 times the diameter of the embedded <br />anchor/post (minimum hole depth 2”). <br />• For added strength, undercut the base of the hole by tilting the drill and <br />working back and forth. <br />• Holes must be free from potential bond breakers such as dirt and <br />dust. Blow out holes with oil free compressed air immediately before <br />placement. <br />• Wet the hole to an SSD condition but do not allow water to pond in the <br />bottom of hole. Vacuum any excess water from the hole.</p> <p>Mixing: <br />• For best results, pre-condition MORTAR-AnchorGrout to 70°F ±5° <br />(21°C ±3°) before mixing. <br />• Use clean potable water to mix MORTAR-AnchorGrout. <br />• Mixing ratio: 4.9–5.15 qts. (4.6 – 4.9 L):50 lbs. (approx. 3.14 - 3.3 fl. <br />oz./1 lb) <br />• For best results, mechanically mix at slow speed with a ¾” drill and <br />Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Data Sheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Physical and Technical Data <br />Physical state:</p> <p>Powder</p> <p>Color:</p> <p>Gray</p> <p>Mix ratio (water:powder):</p> <p>4.9–5.15 qts.

Too much water will cause material to <br />segregate resulting in low strength gain. <br />Application: <br />Read all instructions thoroughly prior to installation. <br />1. Only proceed with application when the temperatures are between <br />40°F - 90°F (4°C - 32°C). <br />2. Place anchor bolts into the hole. <br />3. Pour a small amount of MORTAR-AnchorGrout into hole and work up <br />and down to eliminate air pockets. <br />4. Fill the rest of the hole level with the surrounding concrete. <br />5. Protect from freezing for at least 24 hours after application. <br />6. Follow ACI hot weather application guidelines to ensure a successful <br />application. <br />Clean-up <br />Clean all tools and equipment with water prior to the material hardening. <br />Cured material must be removed mechanically. <br />Curing <br />Cure exposed grout by wet curing for 12 hours or apply a curing <br />compound per ASTM C309. <br />Limitations: <br />• Warmer temperatures reduce the setting times and cooler temperatures <br />extend the setting times. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />(07/30/25-EK,VB,AC)</p> <p>MORTAR-AnchorGrout <br />• Do not use below 40°F (4°C) or over 90°F (32°C). <br />• Do not extend with additional aggregate. <br />• Do not add accelerators, retarders, or any additional admixture. <br />Note: <br />Proper application is the sole responsibility of the user.
