What is the gelling time and full curing time?
We also call gelling time as working time and curing time as hardening time. It is important to know the gelling time and curing time before you start using chemical anchor. However, the time will be varied under different temperature. Please refer to the table below. We have three series of chemical anchor designed for fast curing which are GU-100, GU-600, and GU-2000. And GU-500 series is an option for long working time. Customer should consider the conditions at the installation site before choosing the right chemical anchor.
