3. Applications
T40 hollow grouting anchors are typically used for:
4. Installation Process
4.1 Preparation of anchor system
Choose appropriate T40 hollow anchor bar, coupler, nut, bearing plate, centralizer, drill bit adapter and grout based on project specifications.
4.2 Prepare working surface
Clear away debris and level ground as needed to provide stable work surface for drilling and grouting works.
4.3 Self-drilling installation
Fix on drill bit adapter. Self drill into ground with T40 hollow anchor and advance to required depth. As the anchor bar drills into place it also reinforces the ground.
4.4 Grouting
Inject grout through hollow center of anchor bar. Grout fills borehole and any cracks or fractures around anchor to improve bonding and load transfer characteristics.
4.5 Install plate and nut
Fix on bearing plate and nut after completion of drilling and grouting. Tighten all connections as required by project specifications.
4.6 Curing and final inspection
Allow grout to cure. Check anchor positioning, exposed embedment length and connection tightness.
5. Surface Protection Options
Available coatings and surface protection options include:
• Hot dip galvanizing per ISO 14 061 standards.
• Epoxy resin coating.
• Bending test performance: ISO 15 19
• Impact test performance: ASTM D27 94.
• Adhesion test perforamnce: ISO 24 09:2007.
6. FAQ
6.1 What is a T40 hollow grouting anchor bar?
A T40 hollow grouting anchor bar is a threaded steel anchor used for underground support applications that features a hollow center. Grout can be pumped through the hollow center of the anchor bar.
6.2 Can I use the T40 anchor bar to drill as I place it?
Yes. Our T40 anchor system is able to be used in self-drilling applications. Advancement of the anchor bar is achieved by drilling.
6.3 Where would I use the T40 anchor system?
T40 anchor systems are used almost anywhere underground reinforcement is required. Common applications include tunnels, mines, metros, subway projects, hydropower projects, slope support and weak ground stabilization.
6.4 What is the difference between T40/20 and T40/16?
T40/16 is an anchor bar with smaller inner diameter, thicker cross-section and higher support load capacity compared to T40/20. Select T40/16 when requiring higher strength support capacity.
6.5 What kind of accessories are available for the T40 anchor system?
Common accessories include nuts, couplers, bearing plates, centralizers and drill bit adapters.
