Installation guide for our Pedestrian Studs

Installation

  • Drill a hole 32mm diameter to a depth of 80mm. Clear away dust from interior of hole and surface of the road to be covered by the head of the pelistud.
  • Note: For concrete surfaces it is necessary to prime the hole and surrounding road surface with bitumen emulsion primer prior to grouting.
  • Fill the hole fully with hot bitumen grout and immediately insert the pelistud shank and firmly press the head to the road surface, taking care that the stud is properly aligned.
  • If necessary, pressing may be supplemented by light tamping with a wood or rubber mallet or similar. On no account should the stud be hammered

The surplus of bitumen will be forced out of the hole by the ingoing shank to form a bed for the head. Any surplus bitumen beyond the area of the marker should be trimmed off.

Quality + competitive pricing = value for money
