HY-200 A and R types?
For the allowable expoxy products. HY-200 has been broken out into A and R types. Are both approved for these deep embedments or only HY-200R?

Lisa,
HIT-HY 200 is approved for rebar development use, so this includes both the A and R versions. However, the A version is typically only used for smaller diameter rods (#3 to #5) with more shallow development lengths. Due to the accelerated cure time of the A version, it has the potential to start to cure at the bottom of the hole before the hole is filled and the rebar is in position.

So the only difference between the A and R type is the curing time? What are all the differences between A and R? Thank you.
