Methacrylate-based resin for rebar fixing
BATIMIX A-200 is a methacrylate styrene-free resin used for various repair and construction applications.
BATIMIX A-200 is a versatile product, suitable for a wide variety of construction applications and civil engineering fields of use. It is particularly recommended for the following applications:
BATIMIX A-200 exhibits the following characteristics:
BATIMIX A-200 is not a hazardous material. However, it should not be swallowed or allowed to come into contact with skin and eyes. Suitable gloves and goggles should be worn. For additional information, kindly refer to the product’s Material Safety Data Sheet.
Fixing reinforcement with BATIMIX A-200 complies with BAEL 91 specifications.
The BAEL (Reinforced Concrete at Limit States) specifications are a set of design and calculation rules used for reinforced concrete structures. The BAEL 91 specifications are a particular version of the BAEL specifications published in 1991.
BAEL 91 specifications are used by designers of reinforced concrete structures in France and are widely used in the construction industry in France. The specifications include the rules for the design of the reinforcements, the calculation of the loads and constraints, the resistance of the materials.
The general steps to be implemented when using BATIMIX A-200 can be summarized as follows:
1-Drill the location to be repaired, and clean well 2-Inject BATIMIX A-200 to the required depth 3-Insert the bar 4-Allow enough time to achieve full curing (refer to the table below)

The working load is determined from the equation: L = β × (F / D), where L is the depth (mm), F is the maximum load possible on the bar (daN), D is the drill bit diameter, and β is a parameter linked to the quality of concrete. The β is taken equal to 1 or 1.51 for concrete having 20 to 25 MPa or 35 to 45 MPa, respectively.
