Steve:

Go to www dot us dot hilti dot com
	Then "products"
		Then "adhesive & mechanical anchoring"

Go to www dot powers dot com
	Then "mechanical anchors" or
		"adhesives & foam"

The info is there.

    I did and got 3,5000,000 hits. What product do I  look
under? I don't 
know what you're referring to. A specific url would be
immensely helpful.

All Epoxy's creep over time with load and will quickly fail.

and
shear, post-installed epoxy adhesive anchor rods are
perfectly  fine.
 

Sheesh. I got all panicky for practically  nothing but I'd
still like to take 
a look at the info. Tnx.
