Insert rebar
Insert the rebar into borehole until the embedment mark
is at the concrete surface level.
Proper installation:
Excess mortar flows out of the borehole after the rebar
has been fully inserted until the embedment mark.
Observe the gel time “t
work
”, which varies according to
temperature of base material (see Table 6).
Do not disturb the rebar once the working time “t
work
” has
elapsed till “t
cure
“.
Overhead application:
During insertion of the rebar mortar might flow out of the
bore hole. For collection of the flowing mortar HIT-OHC
may be used.
