I require the time line for how long the Hitli Hit RE-500 V3 will take to reach a compressive strength of MPa, It is for saftey factors on a project

Hello Cameron,

Thank you for your patience as we were waiting for our global team’s input.

Unfortunately, we do not have strength charts or curves to help answer your question. However, To help with your Engineering Judgement, Using our table with the working time (IFU HIT-RE 500 V3), tcure,ini shows the value when an early strength is reached:

[See attached]

At this stage, the bond strength of the anchor has already reached about >50 % of the final strength. The curing speed significantly depends on the temperature (base material, fastening elements, adhesive).

Also, please find below the HIT-RE 500 V3 material properties available in our Technical Guide:

I hope this helps, if you have more questions, please contact us ca.engineeringtechnicalservices@hilti.com

Regards,
