The Ambex Anchoring Capsule is An Alternative to Chemical Adhesives. It is a cementitious non-shrink grout designed for the anchoring of rebar or dowels in concrete or rock.
This dry pre-mixed cementitious grout is encapsulated in a water permeable wrapping; once the grout capsule is saturated in water, and placed in a dry clean hole, it becomes a fast setting thixotropic grout. They require less manpower, no special mixing or placing of equipment is required and they are cost effective.
Ambex Anchoring Capsule - AAC, Ambex standard Anchoring capsule, can be used under water and in cold weather to 0 degrees (-17°C).
NEW ARC is an ultra rapid setting Anchoring Capsule for high initial strength.
NEW ARC-E is a chromium reduced Anchoring Capsule designed to comply with European standards.
All of the Ambex Anchoring Capsules have NO Odor, No Fumes, are Non Toxic, and are Non Petroleum Based!
