Resin Anchors in swimming pool environment

Which chemical anchor and fastener solution is best for use in a swimming pool environment? The fixing would be in an internal plenum and would not be submerged in water.

Hi, Thanks for the question. You mention plenum so I'm assuming some kind of HVAC chamber? Now depending upon where this is located within the building and type of atmosphere, temperature etc that fastener will be exposed to will determine the potential material of the fastener required in addition to the usual loadings, base material, spacing etc and, I'd refer you to the British Stainless Steel Association (www.bssa.org.uk) website for further guidance as to your material selection based upon your specific site conditions .

Thank you - I will assume A4 SS for now. Do you have any recommendations with regards to resin? I was assuming HIT-RE 500 V4 Epoxy. The plenum will be about 40 degrees, supplying fresh, heated air to heat pool glazing - it is not extracting air from the pool environment.

Hi, Yes either the RE500V4 or HY200A V3 injection mortars are possible as part of the EAD qualification testing for post installed rebar I appreciate not quite your application they are subject to maximum chloride content of 0.40% in the cement mix.
