Kimisteel INOX X-BAR

Helical inox steel bars for structural reinforcement

Kimisteel INOX X-BAR is an AISI 304 or AISI 316 stainless steel circular-helical section element used in both new and historical-monumental construction for anchoring systems. To meet different requirements, Kimisteel INOX X-BAR is available in different diameters.

Applications

• Anchoring on masonry and concrete structure; • Connection of structural elements; • Reinforced grouting.

Certifications

The helical bars are tested according to EN 845-1: 2003, EN 10002-1: 2001, EN 846-5: 2000, EN 846-7: 2000.

Application

For "dry" connections in structural and non-structural reinforcement systems, proceed as follows: • Drill pilote holes with a diameter 2 mm smaller than the bar’s diameter (e.g. for bar Ø 10, a hole diameter of 8 mm will be made)*. • Cut the helical bars respecting the required length and insert by means of a drill with a mandrel for helical bars Kimisteel SDS DRILL or manual bar pushers Kimisteel MANUAL DRILL. After installing the Kimisteel SDS Drill on an SDS Plus plug-in drill, install the bar inside the pre-hole, with only percussion until it is completely inserted. • Seal the hole, once screwed the bar, with proper Kimitech resins or Betonfix, Limepor, Tectoria mortars. Kimisteel INOX X-BAR Ø6, thanks to its flexibility, can be put inside the joints of masonry walls so as to realize reinforced repointing works of facades. *In particular situations, facing at very solid and resistant supports like concrete or stone, we suggest to drill the pilot hole with a diameter only 1 mm smaller than the diameter of the bar.
