HAMMPACK / SPIRALHAMMER

Helical reinforcement.
A complete system
for masonry repair.

We manufacture helical bars. Together with ResinBau, we developed a system combining the steel Hs-8 bar with AnkerBau bedding mortar for crack stitching and masonry reinforcement.

Hs-8 Ø8 mm + AnkerBau, anchorage length 500 mm. System property specified in ITB-KOT-2025/2759, tested to PN-EN 846-2. This is a property of the tested anchorage, not the permissible load of the whole repair.

National Technical Assessment ITB-KOT-2025/2759, issue 1, covers the Hs-8 + AnkerBau system. The following specifications and installation instructions apply to this system.

Installation, step by step

01 Cut the chases +

Cut chases in horizontal mortar joints on both sides of the crack. Follow the dimensions shown above and the layout specified in the repair design.

02 Clean and dampen +

Remove loose particles and contamination using compressed air or water. Dampen the substrate with water; repeat for highly absorbent substrates.

03 Prepare the mortar +

Add 3 l of water to 15 kg of dry AnkerBau mix. Mix for 3 minutes, wait 2 minutes, then mix again for 1 minute.

04 Bed the bar +

Apply a first mortar layer approximately 10 mm thick. Press the SpiralHammer Hs-8 bar into the fresh mortar.

05 Fill and finish +

Apply a second layer of AnkerBau and smooth the surface. Fill the open crack with a suitable repair mortar following its manufacturer's instructions. Plastering is possible after at least 24 hours.
