Recipe for "sluring" for casting

[Ugglan]

I'm planning to cast 22mm post shoes into 23-24mm holes I've drilled in the rock.

I remember there's something called "sluring." A mixture of water and cement that can be used?

Does anyone have a good recipe and know how to do it?

I don't have pure cement at home... is it okay to use mortar mix B and water?

You're supposed to use expanderbetong if I'm not completely mistaken.

Edit: Just saw that there was very little space...

Anchor compound is available in a tube/syringe.
But the whole point was perhaps that you might have had all the necessary ingredients at home.

Exactly... I thought that anchor adhesive was a bit expensive and overkill... Also, there's not much extra space in the hole between the iron/rock.

Can I just pour a very loose mixture of mortar & water into the hole and then press down the rebar?

 

[JOW]

You dose the anchoring compound before inserting the iron, and a given amount depending on the hole dimension/iron dimension is usually the measurement scale on the tube.

I hope you get an answer from someone else regarding the cement, because I don't know much about that...

Mortar is porous and not recommended. It might work well with very loosely mixed cement+water but what is definitely recommended is anchor mass.

I sometimes use a cheap two-component filler. Usually polyester-based, sometimes with short glass fibers in the mixture. Has worked well so far.

Can regular maxit rapid flow filler, fiber-reinforced, work? If there isn't any major lateral load...
