A mixture of cement, sand and special additives. For the rapid setting

of bolts, railings and machinery into concrete, brick or stone. Special

need or structural applications where safety is a concern should be de-

signed and approved by a licensed engineer. Metals such as aluminum

that will corrode when exposed to wet cement must be protected.

SAFETY:

READ and UNDERSTAND the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before using

this product. WARNING: Wear protective clothing and equipment. See HMIS

block. For emergency information, call CHEMTREC at 800-424-9300 or 703-

527-3887 (outside USA). KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

PREPARATION:

The concrete or masonry unit to receive the anchor must be sound. Ensure

that the hole is wide enough and deep enough to provide proper support. This

will vary greatly depending on the ﬁxture being anchored. In no case should

the hole be less than 2 inches deep and 2 inches wide. A minimum clearance

of 1 inch is required around the ﬁxture being anchored. Remove all loose

material from the hole. Flood the hole with water and then remove all stand-

ing water leaving the hole damp.

MIXING:

For anchoring into concrete ﬂoors, mix SAKRETE® Anchor Cement to a thick

batter-like consistency. For anchoring into walls, mix to a much stiffer putty-

like consistency.

PLACEMENT:

Place ﬁxture in the hole. Stabilize the ﬁxture so that no movement occurs until

the SAKRETE® Anchor Cement is hard (about 30 minutes). For applications

subject to water, taper the material to shed water away from the ﬁxture.
