NO MANUAL HOLE CLEANING REQUIRED

Set anchors and rebar more reliably
Anchor Fastening Technical Guide , Edition 22
It ’ s no secret that adhesive anchors encounter varying jobsite conditions . Hilti Injection Technology ( HIT ) is featured in our lineup of quality products to combat this issue . With Hilti SafeSet™ Technology , which includes either Hollow Drill Bits with the VC 150 or VC 300 vacuum cleaner or HIT-Z anchor rods , we are taking another giant leap forward by removing a step of the installation process entirely : there is no manual hole cleaning required .
Potential effects of no hole cleaning
When a threaded rod or rebar is set with conventional injection adhesive , the load it ’ s capable of taking may be very low if the hole is inadequately cleaned after drilling . The Hilti SafeSet™ system helps elminate a cleaning step while still providing excellent load values .
