CONNECTOR Wall Crack Anchor
Efficient and economical repair of masonry structures
Cracks in (masonry) façades and in the area of openings and (arched) lintels can be repaired efficiently and cost-effectively with minimal intervention in the masonry.
The simple connection of masonry components to form an effective bond, which can be achieved with little effort, is the focus of the solidian carbon-based masonry crack anchor. Regardless of the possible cause of cracks, they have a significant impact on the overall system of a building and should therefore be repaired with a permanent solution. In this context, it is also possible to reinforce the load-bearing structure (needling) of masonry constructions to restore serviceability or to maintain stability.
