What are the concerns regarding installing epoxy in a hole with an expansion anchor?
I received a question from a contractor recently asking if they could use both epoxy and an expansion anchor. I recall in a webinar there were concerns with this approach. I'm hoping Hilti has a memo or info sheet available that i could forward to the contractor.

Hi Daniel,
Hilti does not have any expansion anchors designed or tested to be used with an adhesive.
However For fastenings in concrete, we do have the Kwik-X innovative dual-action anchor system that includes KH-EZ screw anchors and KHC adhesive capsules. For technical data please see this supplement and the approval
document ICC-ES ESR 5065.
