Key Features and Benefits

  • Styrene-Free Composition: by removing styrene, a hazardous material, from its composition, the R-KEM2 resin ensures a safer environment. This characteristic is particularly beneficial in enclosed spaces or areas with limited ventilation, reducing health risks associated with exposure to styrene.
  • Versatility: the R-KEM2 resin is approved for use in non-cracked concrete and natural stone. This means that it can be used in a variety of settings, including staircases, railings, ladders, consoles, gates, steel constructions, handrails, cable trays, sanitary appliances, high racking, and canopies. Its ability to be used on many types of medium-load capacity areas makes it a valuable tool for those in need of a durable and long-lasting adhesive.
  • Long-Lasting: this resin boasts a working life of 100 years, making it not only effective but long-lasting, ensuring that the adhesion it provides remains strong over time.
  • Easy to Use: with its straightforward application process, the R-KEM2 resin ensures a hassle-free experience. The product comes in a 300ml cartridge, compatible with standard sealant guns, making it accessible for users of all skill levels. It is a suitable alternative to mechanical anchors, providing an additional benefit for those in need of a more flexible adhesive solution.

Application

  1. First off, drill your hole to the exact size and depth needed for the stud you’re using.
  2. For solid surfaces, give the drilled hole a good clean – use a brush and hand pump to clear it out at least four times before you start the real work.
  3. Pop the cartridge into your gun and fix the nozzle on snugly.
  4. Squeeze out a bit onto a scrap material until you see a consistent colour come through – this means it’s ready to go.
  5. Carefully put the mixer nozzle right at the bottom of your drill hole and start filling it with resin. As you do this, gently pull the nozzle up, but only fill the hole to about 70% of its depth.
  6. Now, it’s time for the stud. Insert it gently into the hole with a bit of a twist as you go. If there’s any resin spilling out, wipe it away quickly before it hardens. Then, just leave everything in place without touching it until it’s fully cured.
  7. Last step, fix your fixture in place and tighten the nut to the required torque.

Whether you're a professional contractor looking to improve the environmental footprint of your projects or a DIY enthusiast seeking a high-quality, safe, and easy-to-use anchoring solution, the R-KEM2 resin is designed to meet your needs!
