Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the slit on the ARC75A adhesive retaining cap?

The slit in the cap allows the threaded rod or rebar dowel insert to pass through the cap during installation while still containing and retaining the adhesive inside the drilled hole. This is especially important in overhead and inclined orientations where gravity would otherwise cause the adhesive to run out.

Can the ARC75A support the weight of the anchor during an overhead installation?

No. Adhesive retaining caps are not designed to support the weight of the anchor. In overhead installations, it is advisable to provide an adequate means of anchor support during the adhesive cure time to ensure a proper, safe installation.

Which anchoring adhesives are compatible with the ARC75A retaining cap?

The ARC75A works with any Simpson Strong-Tie anchoring adhesive, offering broad compatibility across the Simpson Strong-Tie adhesive anchor product line.

Can the ARC75A be used with the Simpson Strong-Tie Piston Plug Delivery System?

Yes. ARC adhesive retaining caps may be used in conjunction with the Simpson Strong-Tie Piston Plug Delivery System, providing a complete and compatible overhead and horizontal anchor installation solution.

Note: Adhesive retaining caps are not designed to support the weight of the anchor in overhead installations. It is advisable to provide an adequate means of anchor support during cure time when performing overhead anchor applications.
