2 Welcome to the Red Head Product & Resource Book Our Product and Resource Book is not just a catalog of the quality Red Head Anchoring Systems so many of you have come to rely on, but a resource guide to give you the information you need to help you work better, faster and easier. New this year is an expanded and highly detailed Application Section. This new section allows you to look up your trade or specialty, view a variety of practical applications and receive detailed product recommendations. Along with the product recommendations you ll notice page numbers for easy reference to the product selection and specifications pages. Another new item this year is the consolidation of our Adhesive Anchoring System under the Red Head brand name. The old Epcon name may be gone, but the versatile adhesive anchoring products and formulas remain.
