FAQs
What is the main advantage of these hammer-in resin capsules?
The primary advantage is the speed of installation. They can be hammered directly into the hole, allowing for immediate loading without waiting for resin to cure.
What substrate can I use these capsules in?
They are designed for use in concrete and masonry. Ensure the substrate is solid and suitable for load-bearing.
What size drill bit do I need?
You will need a drill bit suitable for an M12 fixing, typically corresponding to the capsule's specifications. Always refer to the product packaging for precise drill bit size recommendations.
Can I reuse a capsule if I hammer it in partially?
No, once a hammer-in resin capsule is struck and inserted, it cannot be removed and reused. It is designed for a single, permanent installation.
How long does it take for the fixing to be loadable?
These are instant-load fixings. Once the capsule is properly hammered in, the fixing can typically be loaded immediately.
What is the quantity in a box?
Each box contains 10 JCP J-Fix Hammer-In Resin Capsules.
Are these suitable for exterior use?
Yes, they are made from durable materials suitable for construction and renovation tasks, implying suitability for exterior applications provided the base substrate is protected from excessive moisture.
Troubleshooting
Capsule does not hammer in fully
Ensure the drilled hole is clean and of the correct diameter. Check for any obstructions within the hole. Use a hammer of appropriate weight for the task.
Poor holding power after installation
Verify that the hole was thoroughly cleaned before capsule insertion. Ensure the substrate is sound and not cracked or crumbling. The capsule must be fully hammered in.
Resin appears to be uncured
These are hammer-in capsules and do not require a separate curing time like two-part chemical anchors. The holding power is achieved through mechanical expansion and resin displacement upon hammering. If poor performance is noted, refer to the 'Poor holding power' solution.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Extremely fast installation time compared to traditional chemical anchors.
Provides a strong and reliable fixing in concrete and masonry.
Durable materials ensure longevity and consistent performance.
Easy to use, requiring only a hammer.
Suitable for both professional trades and DIY projects.
Cons
Requires a hammer for installation, which might not be ideal in confined spaces.
Primarily designed for concrete and masonry; performance in other substrates may vary.
Once hammered in, repositioning is not possible.
Requires a correctly sized pre-drilled hole for optimal performance.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Drill a hole in the concrete or masonry substrate using a masonry drill bit of the correct diameter specified for M12 fixings.
Clean the drilled hole thoroughly to remove dust and debris. This is crucial for optimal resin adhesion.
Insert the JCP J-Fix Hammer-In Resin Capsule (M12 x 110mm) into the cleaned hole.
Using a hammer, firmly strike the end of the capsule until it is fully seated and flush with the substrate surface.
Compatibility:
Primarily designed for use in solid concrete and masonry.
Ensure the substrate is sound and capable of supporting the intended load.
Compatible with standard M12 threaded rods or bolts, provided they fit within the capsule opening after installation.
Care:
Store the capsules in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures.
Keep the packaging sealed to prevent contamination of the resin.
Handle with care to avoid damaging the capsules before installation.
