Weicon a Epoxy Resin 0.2 Kg

WEICON A has a DNV certificate and is particularly suitable for repair and maintenance work in the maritime industry. The epoxy resin system is highly filled with steel pigments, magnetic and its pasty texture allows application even on vertical surfaces. It can be used to remove corrosion damage and pitting or to repair holes and blowholes. For example, it can be used to reproduce heavy steel components showing severe damage by corrosion and pitting. In this case, WEICON A provides a real alternative to welding, as the application of the epoxy resin does not cause thermal distortion as in welding. The 2-component system can be used for repairs on tanks and pipes as well as for repairing cracks in engine or pump housings and machine parts. It is ideal for use in sewer systems where pipes and pipelines are exposed to strong media influences. Other applications include the manufacture of models, moulds, tools and clamping devices. WEICON A can be used in mechanical engineering, in toolmaking, in the cement industry, in power plants, in model and mould making, and in many other industrial sectors.

Application

For processing, we recommend an ambient temperature of 20°C (68°C) at less than 85% relative humidity. The highest adhesive strength is achieved when the parts to be processed are heated to >35°C (>95°F) before application. For a thin pre-coat, work WEICON A intensively into the surface in crosswise layers using the Contour Spatula Flexy to achieve maximum adhesion. By means of this technique, the epoxy resin penetrates well into all cracks and roughness depths. Afterwards, further applications can be carried out straight away, until the desired layer thickness is reached. Make sure that the epoxy resin is applied evenly and without air bubbles. To fill large gaps or holes, fibreglass, expanded metal or other mechanical fixing materials should be used. Finally, the surface can be smoothed easily with the help of a PE film and a rubber roller.
