Lokset™ Resin Capsules

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.

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
