Product Description
EZ-Mix™ 40
EZ~MIX™ 40 is a brushable polyurethane rubber mold compound that mixes and applies easily. Two liquids (Part A and Part B) are measured and combined in equal amounts by volume (no scale is necessary). After a few minutes of mixing, EZ~MIX™ 40 is ready to be applied to a vertical surface with a brush. After a suitable thickness is attained (multiple layers), EZ~MIX™ 40 cures overnight with negligible shrinkage to a flexible, durable mold rubber. Following the application of a support shell, a rubber mold made with EZ~MIX™ 40 is suitable for casting a variety of materials including wax, gypsum, urethane/epoxy resins, concrete, cement, etc.
EpoxAcoat™ HT
EpoxAcoat™ HT is a slightly thixotropic epoxy gel coat that offers high heat resistance (post cure required). Cured epoxy is tough and offers exceptional abrasion resistance. This surface coat will wet out well over a variety of surfaces with good sag resistance. Applications include laminating, precision tooling, master and pattern making, core boxes and fixtures.
Use as a surface coat for EpoxAmite™ HT high temperature laminating epoxy.
