| Material | High-Modulus Carbon Fiber CFRP |
| Tensile Strength | 195,000 PSI |
| Pull Strength | 4,500 lbs per stitch |
| Fiber Orientation | Unidirectional · Pre-Pregnated |
| Stitch Size | Length: 12" ; Web Thickness: 0.055 in ; Web Width: 0.42" |
| Corrosion | Non-Corrosive |
| Epoxy System | High-Strength Structural Paste |
| Installation Cuts | Single Slot (vs multiple for rebar) |
| Finish | Paintable / Coverable Surface |
| Applications | Residential & Commercial |
| Maintenance | None |
*Tensile strength of individual carbon fibers vs mild structural steel. CFRP system performance governed by composite action and engineering design values per ICC-ES evaluation.
We built Crack Lock® to outperform traditional staples, grid-style stitches, and rebar on strength, speed, and lifetime cost. The numbers speak for themselves.
Crack Lock® is designed for field crews. The install is fast, repeatable, and requires no specialty equipment beyond what's already on your truck.
Prep
Grind across the surface of a crack to ensure its level.
Locations
Install first CCL as close to the start of the crack as possible. CCL's should be installed every 8" to 12". Center the CCL to the crack and trace the outline. Vary angles slightly to reinforce the crack.
Drill
Drill 1/2" holes at each end of the cut where the lock will be inserted.
Cut
Make the cut across the crack for the CCL, ensuring the cut is full depth from hole location to hole location.
Clean
Vacuum or blow out all debris. Dust-free channels are critical for full epoxy adhesion and maximum pull strength.
Epoxy
Inject RHINO High-Strength Anchoring Epoxy Paste along the full length of the cut using the supplied mixing nozzle.
Install
Press the Crack Lock® stitch firmly into the epoxy-filled slot. The pre-preg fiber bonds immediately into the matrix. Top off the cut with Epoxy until it is even with your concrete.
Finish
Smooth the surface, patch the remaining crack, then paint, coat, tile, or leave raw.
