Lokset Accessories

Lokset resin capsules are the most trusted brand in resin anchoring systems. The chemical nature of the Lokset cartridge allows the contents to be easily mixed, yet minimises resin runout.

We provide a comprehensive range of auxiliary products for the fast and easy application of this innovative product.

Resin Capsule Parachutes

Parachutes are recommended when Lokset™ resin capsules are air-loaded into rock bolt holes. The parachute guides and protects the capsule while it travels at high speed through the loading tube into the hole, then holds the capsule up the hole until the bolt is inserted.

Instructions for use:

Gently force the resin capsule into the open end of the parachute

Load the capsule into the capsule gun so that the parachute is on the front end

Fire the capsule into the hole

Resin Capsule Top Hats (Retainers)

Resin capsule top hats are made from recycled plastic and are used to retain resin capsules in rock bolt holes, until the bolts are inserted. This frees the operator to use both hands for other tasks such as lining up the rock bolt and operating the bolting machine.

Instructions for use:

Insert the resin capsule into hole.

Push in the top hat behind the resin capsule.

If multiple capsules are used, push in a top-hat behind each one

Resin Capsule Injector

The resin injector is used to load Lokset™ resin capsules into roofbolt holes, and consists of a plunger within a hollow tube. Each Resin Injector is tested in our laboratories prior to dispatch.

Instructions for use:

Remove the plunger from the outer tube.

Insert the appropriate size polytop into one end of the outer tube.

From the other end, insert the Lokset™ resin capsules

Push the injector against the roofbolt hole opening, and push the plunger until the resin capsules and polytop are inside the hole.

Quick-Chem™ System

The Quick-Chem™ Lokset™ resin capsule insertion system ensures safe, fast and complete insertion of resin capsules. The system consists of a specially designed cap suitable for attaching to Lokset™ resin capsules and an insertion tube that carries the resin capsule(s) to the back to of the holes and is then removed for re-use.

Instructions for use:

Securely attach appropriate Quick- Chem™ cap to the end of the Lokset™ resin

Place the capsule with the cap attached in the Quick-Chem™ insertion tube

Fit the tube to the shank of the drifter

Collar the tube in the hole and push into the hole until the resin capsule cannot be seen

Withdraw the tube
