APPLICATION

Surfaces to receive adhesive must be clean and free of frost. The base material temperature must be 0° F or above at the time of installation. For information on installations below 0° F contact Simpson. Mixed material in nozzle can harden in 5–7 minutes. For installations in or through standing water, see Supplemental Topics - Adhesive Anchors for details.

When the concrete temperature is at or below freezing, ensure any holes drilled in advance are free of frost or ice.

TEST CRITERIA

Anchors installed with AT Acrylic-Tie® adhesive have been tested in accordance with ICC-ES's Acceptance Criteria for Adhesive Anchors (AC58) for the following:

• Seismic/wind loading
• Long-term creep at elevated-temperature
• Static loading at elevated-temperature
• Damp and water-filled holes
• Freeze-thaw conditions
• Critical and minimum edge distance and spacing

In addition, anchors installed with AT Acrylic-Tie® adhesive have been tested in accordance with ICC-ES's Acceptance Criteria for Unreinforced Masonry Anchors (AC60) and NSF/ANSI Standard 61, Drinking Water System Components - Health Effects.

SHELF LIFE

Twelve months from date of manufacture in unopened cartridge.

STORAGE CONDITIONS

For best results store between 32° F - 80° F. Partially used cartridges can be stored for a limited time by leaving nozzle in place. To re-use, attach new nozzle.

COLOR

Resin — white, initiator — black
When properly mixed, adhesive will be a uniform gray color.

CLEAN UP

Uncured material – Wipe up with cotton cloths. If desired scrub area with abrasive, waterbased cleaner and flush with water. If approved, solvents such as ketones (MEK, acetone, etc.), lacquer thinner, or adhesive remover can be used. DO NOT USE SOLVENTS TO CLEAN ADHESIVE FROM SKIN. Take appropriate precautions when handling flammable solvents. Solvents may damage surfaces to which they are applied. Cured material — Chip or grind off surface.

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

Very good to excellent against distilled water and inorganic acids. Fair to good against organic acids and alkalis, inorganic alkalis, and many organic solvents. Poor against ketones. For more detailed information contact Simpson or see Technical Bulletin T-SAS-CHEMRES08.

SUGGESTED SPECIFICATIONS

Anchoring adhesive shall be a two-component acrylic based system supplied in manufacturer's standard side-by-side or coaxial cartridge and dispensed through a static-mixing nozzle supplied by the manufacturer. Adhesive shall meet the physical requirements of ASTM C-881 for Type I and IV, Grade 3, Class A, B and C and must develop a minimum 10,210 psi compressive yield strength after 7 day cure. Adhesive must have a heat deflection temperature of a minimum 149°F (65°C). Adhesive shall be Acrylic-Tie® from Simpson Strong-Tie, Pleasanton, CA. Anchors shall be installed per Simpson Strong-Tie instructions for AT Acrylic-Tie® adhesive.

In-Service Temperature Sensitivity

1. Refer to in-service temperature sensitivity chart for allowable bond strength reduction for in-service temperature. See Supplemental Topics - Adhesive Anchors for more information.
2. T_inst is the base material temperature during installation and curing of the adhesive.
3. Percent allowable load for T_inst = 0°F is to be used for T_inst between 0°F and 70°F.
4. Percent allowable load may be linearly interpolated for intermediate base material in-service temperatures.
5. °C = (°F - 32) / 1.8
