ResiTie

Remedial wall tie with a resin/resin fix

System Components

ResiTies with plastic sleeves
Hand-held support tool
Load test unit and collet key
Drill bit for clearance hole
PolyPlus resin cartridge and extension nozzles

Installation

1. Mark the points for the ResiTies on the near leaf brickwork. Using a 10mm drill bit and rotary percussion drill, where possible, drill a clearance hole through the near leaf and 55mm into the far leaf. The hole should be drilled about half way up the brick and around 15mm from the end to avoid frogs and core holes

2. Clean both holes of debris using a pneumatic spoil cleaner or an airjet

3. Inject PolyPlus resin to fill the hole in the far leaf

4. Using the hand-held support tool, insert the ResiTie, with plastic sleeves fitted, into the clearance hold until the far sleeve enters the far leaf

5. After the resin has cured, security of fixing in the far leaf can be tested with a Helifix Load Test Unit

6. Inject PolyPlus resin into the near leaf until the hole is filled and then make good the outer face

Applications

Replacement tie for cavity walls where a resin bond is required at both ends of the tie
