The Hilti Difference
Hilti field engineers worked with Battersea project leaders to provide technical support at early stages of the project. Since project teams were required to reinforce 2-ft thick brick walls that contained sporadic cavities within the wall, the teams needed a unique anchoring solution. Hilti team members proposed installing the HIT-HY 70 hybrid adhesive anchor with mesh sleeves. This solution ensured that the injected adhesive quantities in the base material cavities were controlled, thus maximizing effectiveness of the installed anchors in the variable base material.
Hilti account managers also consulted with the Battersea team to find the optimal combihammer for the delicate brick base material. The TE 80-ATC/AVR met the contractors’ needs with unequalled drilling speed and performance in concrete, stone and masonry.
Product Spotlight
HIT-HY 70 is a hybrid adhesive anchor system that can be applied in hollow and solid masonry as well as brick base materials. It is also suitable for seismic upgrades and renovations of unreinforced masonry buildings. This adhesive provides strong, reliable and easy-to-install fastenings in indoor or outdoor applications and can be installed in dry or wet drilled holes.
