Before Use
Each time a new box of straps is opened, they must be soaked in lukewarm water for 2 hours or hot water for 30 minutes before use. Soaking is one time only
The nylon strap is designed to absorb moisture so it will stretch during installation. This strap is engineered in a way that as the mortar is drying, it pulls the moisture out of the strap, making the strap more brittle so that the strap can snap off cleanly after the setting material drying is complete
