Hilti HIT-HY 200
Adhesive is an injectable, two-component hybrid adhesive.
The two components are separated by means of a dualcylinder foil pack attached to a manifold. The two
components combine and react when dispensed through
a static mixing nozzle attached to the manifold.
Hilti HIT-HY 200 is available in 11.1-ounce (330 mL) and
16.9-ounce (500 mL) foil packs. The manifold attached to
each foil pack is stamped with the adhesive expiration
date. The shelf life, as indicated by the expiration date,
applies to an unopened foil pack stored in a dry, dark
environment and in accordance with Figure 6.
Hilti HIT-HY 200 Adhesive is available in two options,
Hilti HIT-HY 200-A and Hilti HIT-HY 200-R. Both options
are subject to the same technical data as set forth in this

lowest design strengths determined from all appropriate
failure modes. Nn is the lowest design strength in tension
of an anchor or group of anchors as determined from
consideration of Nsa, either Na or Nag, and either Ncb or
Ncbg. Vn is the lowest design strength in shear of an
anchor or a group of anchors as determined from
consideration of Vsa, either Vcb or Vcbg, and either Vcp
or Vcpg. For adhesive anchors subject to tension resulting
from sustained loading, refer to D.4.1.4 for additional
requirements.
Add ACI 318 D.4.1.4 as follows:
D.4.1.4For adhesive anchors subjected to tension
resulting from sustained loading, a supplementary design
analysis shall be performed using Eq. (D-1) whereby Nua is
determined from the sustained load alone, e.g., the dead
load and that portion of the live load acting that may be
considered as sustained and Nn is determined as follows:
D.4.1.4.1For single anchors: Nn = 0.75Na0.

4.3 Installation:
Installation parameters are illustrated in Figure 1.
Installation of the Hilti HIT-HY 200 Adhesive Anchor
System must conform to the manufacturers published
installation instructions included in each unit package as
provided in Figure 6 of this report. Anchor locations must
comply with this report and the plans and specifications
approved by the code official.
4.4 Special Inspection:
Periodic special inspection must be performed where
required in accordance with Sections 1704.4 and 1704.15
of the 2009 IBC, or Section 1704.13 of the 2006 or 2003
IBC, whereby periodic special inspection is defined in
Section 1702.1 of the IBC and this report. The special
inspector must be on the jobsite initially during anchor
installation to verify anchor type, anchor dimensions,
concrete type, concrete compressive strength, hole
dimensions, hole cleaning procedures, anchor spacing,
edge distances, concrete thickness, anchor embedment,
and tightening torque. The special inspector must verify the
initial installations of each type and size of adhesive
anchor by construction personnel on site. Subsequent
installations of the same anchor type and size by the same
construction personnel may be performed in the absence
of the special inspector. Any change in the anchor product
being installed or the personnel performing the installation
requires an initial inspection. For ongoing installations over
an extended period, the special inspector must make
regular inspections to confirm correct handling and
installation of the product.
Continuous special inspection is required for all cases
where anchors installed overhead (vertical up) are
designed to resist sustained tension loads.
Under the IBC, additional requirements as set forth in
Sections 1705, 1706, and 1707 must be observed, where
applicable.

Linear interpolation for a specific edge distance c, where cmin,1 < c < cmin,2, will determine the permissible spacing, s, as follows:

s smin2 +

smin1 - smin2
cmin1 - cmin2

Bond strength values correspond to concrete compressive strength in the range 2,500 psi fc 4,500 psi. For the range 4,500 psi < fc
6,500 psi, tabulated characteristic bond strengths may be increased by 6 percent. For the range 6,500 psi < fc 8,000 psi, tabulated
characteristic bond strengths may be increased by 10 percent.

Temperature range A: Maximum short term temperature = 104F (40C), Maximum long term temperature = 75F (24C).
Temperature range B: Maximum short term temperature = 176F (80C), Maximum long term temperature = 122F (50C).
Temperature range C: Maximum short term temperature = 248F (120C), Maximum long term temperature = 162F (72C).
Short term elevated concrete temperatures are those that occur over brief intervals, e.g., as a result of diurnal cycling. Long term concrete
temperatures are roughly constant over significant periods of time.

Bond strength values correspond to concrete compressive strength in the range 2,500 psi fc 4,500 psi. For the range 4,500 psi < fc
6,500 psi, tabulated characteristic bond strengths may be increased by 6 percent. For the range 6,500 psi < fc 8,000 psi, tabulated
characteristic bond strengths may be increased by 10 percent.

Temperature range A: Maximum short term temperature = 104F (40C), Maximum long term temperature = 75F (24C).
Temperature range B: Maximum short term temperature = 176F (80C), Maximum long term temperature = 122F (50C).
Temperature range C: Maximum short term temperature = 248F (120C), Maximum long term temperature = 162F (72C).
Short term elevated concrete temperatures are those that occur over brief intervals, e.g., as a result of diurnal cycling. Long term concrete
temperatures are roughly constant over significant periods of time.
