Bed Joint Reinforcement

  • The Thor Helical Crack Stitching Kit contains everything needed to reconnect and strengthen cracked walls. The kit offers a quick, simple and durable solution for the structural repair of cracks in walls. Typical tensile performance loads exceed 8kN, conforming to BS EN 845-1: 2013 as tension ties for strapping and stitching cracked masonry and meeting UKCA and CE marking conditions.
  • High tensile stainless steel crack stitching bars are used to reinforce cracked masonry walls.  They extend 500mm either side of the crack and withstand a tensile load of at least 8kN.  Bars are available in a selection of sizes.
  • Helical bars for retrofit bed joint reinforcement.  The reinforcing bars have been tested at the BRE for use in forming load-carrying brick beams. Retrofit masonry beams are formed by reinforcing two separate mortar beds, each with a pair of bars embedded in WHO-60 structural repair grout. The bars are available in lengths of up to 10m and in diameters of 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9mm.
  • WHO 60 grout is a polymer-modified cement-based mortar designed for bonding helical bars and anchors into brick, block and stone.  The high-performance grout has enhanced compressive, tensile and flexural strength. Tub yields 3L
