Adequate direct tensile strength
between two layers is important if repairs to concrete structures or additional
overlays on existing concrete are to be structurally sound. The 007 James Bond Tester involves bonding a circular steel disc to the surface by means of an epoxy resin adhesive. A controlled tensile force is then applied to the disc and failure will occur at the weakest point: either in the host material, or in the bond between overlay and host material. Knowing the surface area of the disc and the force applied at failure, the tensile strength of the host material or bond can be calculated. |

Method 1. Using a coring bit for either 3 inch or 2 inch cores, make a notch or kerf in the material to be tested, drilling through the bond interface. This exactly defines the area to be tested. 2. Using a standard quick epoxy adhesive (not supplied with the kit) attach a steel disc on the defined test area. 3. Set the bond test alignment plate over the defined test area and level the plate by adjusting the legs. 4. Attach the Puller and turn the hand operated ratchet wrench until failure occurs. 5. The steel discs can be reused and cleaned using a suitable solvent. |
