MP-3 Polyester Anchoring System  

Assembly and Safety Instructions 

 

 

Important:  

Read all instructions and materials thoroughly before 

proceeding

 

 

 

 

1.

 Do not allow contact with skin 

or eyes. Use only in a well-

ventilated area. Do not use near 

open flame. 

2.

  Wear safety goggles. If 

possible, use the part to be 

anchored as a drilling template. 

Drill the holes 1/8" larger than 

the stud diameter to the 

recommended depth, using a 

two fluted rotary percussive drill. 

Full strength will not be achieved 

if a diamond drill is used. Check 

to be sure all holes are drilled to 

the proper depth and aligned 

with the part to be anchored. 

3. 

While wearing safety glasses, 

blow the concrete dust from the 

hole, using oil-free compressed 

air. Thoroughly clean the hole 

with a stiff-bristled brush, and 

then blow it out again. If the hole 

is wet, completely flush it with 

water while brushing. Then blow 

it clean using oil-free 

compressed air. 

 

 

 

4. 

While wearing gloves and 

safety goggles, remove the lids 

from the MP-3 Part A-Resin and 

Part B-Hardener containers. 

Pour Part B into Part A and mix 

vigorously for 30 seconds to 

form MP-3 grout. (An anchor 

stud may serve as a stirring rod.) 

5. 

For faster hardening in cold 

weather, Promoter may be used. 

Do not use Promoter when the 

temperature is above 60°F

Add the entire contents of the 

Promoter container to the MP-3 

grout and mix for an additional 

30 seconds. Use immediately, 

the MP-3 grout will thicken 

quickly. 

6. 

Position the part to be 

anchored over the clean holes. 

Crimp the mouth of the can to 

form a spout and pour the MP-3 

grout mixture down into the hole 

through the part. Fill 1/3 of the 

hole. Do not over-  or under-fill 

the hole.
