New masonry products for July 2013

Words: Dan Kamys

Blast Window Retention Anchor Systems

CINTEC
Baltimore

CINTEC America offers its Blast Window Retention Anchor Systems. CINTEC’s Blast Window Retention Anchor Systems offer a customized solution for each application and masonry substrate to provide maximum resistance to explosions. At the site, the CINTEC Blast Window Retention Anchor System, fashioned out of a steel bar enclosed in a mesh fabric sleeve, is inserted into the masonry and then connected to the frames. A specially developed, non-polymer, cementitious grout then is injected into the sleeve under low pressure. The grout fuses with the mesh, expands and shapes itself around the steel to fit the space.
