Lokset™ Resin is a two-component resin capsule used in mining and construction industries.
Lokset capsules are filled with a reinforced thixotropic polyester resin in one compartment and a catalysed mastic filler in the other, separated by a physical barrier. The rotation of the bolt during installation ruptures the capsule, shreds the skin and mixes the two components causing a chemical reaction and transforming the resin mastic into a solid anchor.
Advantages
- Fast setting, easy to install
- Customised set times & dimensions
- Quick high-load transfer
Product Features
- Easy to install, requiring no special injection equipment
- Resistant to anchoring failure caused by blasting or vibration
- Rapid anchoring of the bolt to the surrounding strata
- High load transfers achievable almost immediately
- Full column bonded bolts strongly resist the horizontal and lateral strata movement associated with convergence
- Provides strength and rigidity to prevent sag
- Acts as a reinforcement that clamps the individual strata layers into a single high strength beam
- Effectively seals wet, dripping holes and in most cases eliminates deterioration of the hole and surrounding strata
- Unaffected by sea or fresh water, mild acids, or mild alkali's
- Immediately fixes rock bolts / anchors
- Protects bolts from corrosion, can be used in wet /underwater conditions
