Concap R
Description

CONCAP R resin capsules contain very high quality polyester resin and its catalyst in precisely measured quantities. The capsules are designed to be inserted into the drill holes for the purpose of mining or tunnelling. The rotating bolt during insertion, forces resin and catalyst to come in contact and thus ensuring homogeneous mixing of the catalyst and the resin. The homogeneous mix fills the annular space between the bolt and the bore hole and holds the bolt firmly and permanently.

Uses
  • Concap R resin capsules are developed for stabilisation of strata in tunnels and mining applications.
  • The basic purpose of strata reinforcement CONCAP R resin capsules is to prevent the freshly exposed rocks particularly overhead after each blast from collapsing.
  • Concap R resin capsules may be used for the purpose of both point anchorage and full column grouting mortars.
  • Advantages
    • Controlled setting time.
    • Permanent anchorage unaffected by vibration or by corrossive environment.
    • Distributed anchorage - no localised high stresses, induced in bolted rock.
    • Reliability: laboratory tested pre packed material.
    • Minimise complications like prolonged setting time, limited load bearing ability, etc.
    • Chemical & corrosion resistance - the cured polyester resin is resistant to fresh and salt water, oils, grease, petrol, salts etc.
