The HTA system

The HTA system is totally ‘non-destructive’ requires no primer to be removed from the steel sections to which pins are to be fixed. It requires no drilling into concrete, and as such, removes the generation of harmful Silica Dust. The HTA System requires no specialist tools, no extensive training and it reduces a raft of Health and Safety concerns. The HTA System is a one pack, ready to use adhesive from a cartridge using a simple mastic applicator gun.
