Detailed description

>> Descriptiffamille :
Asbestos was used in many materials and products for its sound and thermal insulation properties as well as its heat resistance. However, its health effects led to a ban on its use on 1 January 1997. Protective measures for workers against the risks of inhaling asbestos come from the French Labour Code, and employers are required to provide and ensure that employees wear suitable equipment (Decree 2012-639 and Articles R4412-94 and R4412-148). Protective equipment must meet current NF standards and provide a complete seal against the environment during construction. To prevent any contamination, equipment must be single-use and be disposed of in marked containers according to strict rules.

Whether for work on walls or floors, these capsules are capable of capturing and retaining fine and ultrafine particles, including asbestos, lead, crystalline silica and other harmful substances. - Transparent, non-harmful gel, pre-dosed and ready to use. - Use in sub-section 4 (SS4). - Box of 25 capsules; Price per capsule. Operating procedure 1. Clean the surface by vacuuming and then using a damp cloth or wipe. 2. Draw a precise drill mark. 3. Pre-drill the two tanks up to the gel, from the top of the capsule, using a Ø10 mm drill bit; 4. Remove the cover on the underside, then pull out the drill bit. 5. Place the drill bit on the drill mark, then press the capsule firmly against the floor. 6. Drill at a slow speed, moving back and forth to bring the gel to the drilling face. 7. Carefully remove the drill bit and, leaving the capsule on the floor, press it down on the top and sides in order to properly mix and trap all the dust in the gel. 8.
