Below is only a summary of product data. Please download the product datasheet for complete details.
| Generic Type | Polyamide Epoxy | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Common Usage | Industry standard for potable water epoxy coatings for nearly 30 years. Known for its forgiving application characteristics in adverse and varied conditions, and for its benchmark performance. | ||||||||
| Colors | 1211 Red, 1255 Beige, 11WH White, 15BL Tank White, 39BL Delft Blue. Note: Epoxies chalk with extended exposure to sunlight. Lack of ventilation, incomplete mixing, miscatalyzation or the use of heaters that emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide during application and initial stages of curing may cause yellowing to occur. |
||||||||
| Primers | Self-priming, 1, FC20, N140, N140F, 91-H2O, 94-H2O. Note: 91-H2O is ANSI/NSF Std. 61 certified by UL as a primer for Series 20. Refer to the 91-H2O product data sheet for additional information. | ||||||||
| Topcoats | Interior: Series 20, FC20, N140, N140F, 264, 265 Exterior: Series 20, FC20, 66, N69, N69F, 73, N140, N140F, 161, 700, 701, 1074, 1075. Note: When topcoating with Series 700 or 701, an intermediate coat of Series 73 or 1075 is required. Refer to COLORS on applicable topcoat data sheets for additional information. |
||||||||
| Volume Solids | 57.0 ± 2.0% (mixed) † | ||||||||
| Recommended DFT | 2.0 to 6.0 mils (50 to 150 microns) per coat. Note: Number of coats and thickness requirements will vary with substrate, application method and exposure. Contact your Tnemec representative. | ||||||||
| Curing Time |
Curing time varies with surface temperature, air movement, humidity and film thickness. Ventilation: When used in enclosed areas, provide adequate ventilation during application and cure. |
