Industrial grouting epoxy

W. R. Meadows recently introduced EG-96 HP, a three component, 100-percent solids, VOC and BGE free, epoxy resin system. A high-strength, flowable epoxy grout, EG-96 HP is ideal for use in industrial projects including crane rail and wind turbine base grouting and support of chemical tanks, vessels and vibrating equipment.
 
EG-96 HP flows into spaces under machines and fills completely before hardening. It shows good resistance to impact and vibratory loading equal to reinforced rubber materials and will not delaminate under the most severe shock loads.
 
“The adjustable flow and chemical resistance of EG-96 HP make it an excellent option for large volume industrial applications,” said Steve Geiger, national sales manager for concrete restoration at W. R. Meadows.
 
In addition, EG-96 HP contributes to LEED credits including Indoor Environmental Quality and Materials and Resources.

Chemical and abrasion-resistant epoxy

Henkel has introduced a two-part, sprayable ceramic coating designed to protect metal surfaces on industrial equipment from wear, abrasion and corrosion. Loctite Nordbak 7255 sprayable ceramic coating is sprayed onto metal components to create smooth, low-friction surfaces that improve equipment efficiency. It is ideal for use on tank linings, mixing vessels, pump housings, impellers, chutes, troughs and centrifuge components. The solvent-free, thixotropic formulation can be used in overhead applications, and adheres very well to a range of metal surfaces.
