Lokset® Resin Capsules

Lokset capsules are filled with a reinforced thixotropic polyester resin in one compartment and a catalysed mastic filler in the other, separated by a physical barrier. The rotation of the bolt during installation ruptures the capsule, shreds the skin and mixes the two components causing a chemical reaction and transforming the resin mastic into a solid anchor.

Increase productivity with a two speed capsule that eliminates the need to use multiple, single speed resin capsules. Achieve pre-tensioning of fully encapsulated resin grouted rock bolts.

The rotation of the bolt during installation ruptures the capsule, shreds the skin and mixed the two components causing a chemical reaction and transforming the resin mastic into a solid anchor.

The Supamix capsule's low mastic to catalyst ratio improves mixing consistency and installed bolt quality. Offers extended 6 month shelf life.

In 2008 Minova completed an extensive product development program focusing on improving the quality and reliability of installed resin bolts. All the proposed developments objectives were achieved culminating in the Lokset® Supamix® range of resin capsules.

The capsule is available in 50:50 ratio of fast: slow speeds

Specially formulated resin mastics to aid insertion where long tendon support is required. This range was developed for use with all resin anchored cable bolts and includes F-Series and J-Series capsules. J-Series capsules are used as an anchoring support in strata where larger annular gaps between bolt and hole diameters are encountered with long tendon strand cables.

Can be used with a range of long tendon support cables and include; SuperStrand cables, Flexibolts, Spinbolts, Megabolts, and Cable bolts.

Uses include intersections, cut throughs, long life roadways, secondary and additional primary support

Australia's only long life resin capsule offering 12 month shelf life. Improved efficiency & reduced storage, waste and disposal. This new resin offers 12 month shelf life with significantly enhanced storage abilities in both hot and cold conditions. A further reduction in resin volume will ensure cost reductions in freight, storage and waste.

The Lokset Advance resin capsule consists of a reinforced, thixotropic polyester resin mastic in one compartment and an organic peroxide catalyst separated by a physical barrier in the other. The rotation of the bolt during installation ruptures the capsule, shreds the skin and mixes the two components causing a chemical reaction and transforming the resin mastic into a solid anchor.

Patented insertion system developed to remotely install Lokset resin capsules into boreholes for rock bolting. The Quick-Chem system is used in conjunction with Lokset resin capsules to ensure quick, safe, efficient and remote insertion of the resin capsule into the bolt hole.

The system aids mechanical installation of resin capsules where hand installation is not practical. The system includes a purpose designed retaining cap (attached to the resin capsule) and an insertion tube. The insertion tubes consist of a 25mm, 26mm, 30mm or 36mm diameter tube and R32 threaded adaptor sleeve. The tubes are fitted into the Jumbo drifter, and used to safely insert resin capsules undamaged to the back of each borehole.
