Devcon Aluminium Liquid (F2) 1lb

Devcon Aluminium Liquid (F2) 1lb

Devcon Aluminium Liquid (F2) is an aluminum-filled, pourable epoxy for making molds, patterns, and holding fixtures that can be machined, drilled, or tapped.

Intended Use:

Mold-making, patterns, holding fixtures, leveling equipment

Product features:

• Machinable to metallic finish
• Low viscosity, self-leveling liquid
• Castable
• Low shrinkage

Limitations:

Not recommended for long term exposure to concentrated acids and organic solvents.

Surface
Preparation:

1. Thoroughly clean the surface with Devcon® Cleaner Blend 300 to remove all oil, grease and dirt.
2. Grit blast surface area with 8-40 mesh grit, or grind with a coarse wheel or abrasive disc pad, to create increased surface area for better adhesion (Caution: An abrasive disc pad can only be used provided white mesh is revealed). Desired profile is 3-5mil, including defined edges (do not "feather-edge” epoxy).Note: For metals exposed to sea water or other salt solution, grit-blast and high-pressure-water-blast the area, then leave overnight to allow any salts in the metal to “sweat” to the surface. Repeat blasting to “sweat out” all soluble salts. Perform chloride contamination test to determine soluble salt content (should be no more than 40ppm).
3. Clean surface again with Devcon® Cleaner Blend 300 to remove all traces of oil, grease, dust or other foreign substances from the grit blasting.
4. Repair surface as soon as possible to eliminate any changes or surface contaminants WORKING CONDITIONS: Ideal application temperature is 55°F to 90°F. In cold working conditions, directly heat repair area to 100-110°F prior to applying epoxy and maintain at this temperature during product cure to dry off any moisture, contamination or solvents, as well as to achieve maximum performance properties.

Mixing
Instructions:

---- It is strongly recommended that full units be mixed, as ratios are pre-measured. ----

1. Add hardener to resin
2. Mix thoroughly with screwdriver or similar tool (continuously scrape material away from sides and bottom of container) until a uniform, streak-free consistency is obtained.LARGE SIZES (2 lb., 25 lb.): Use a propeller-type Jiffy Mixer Model ES on an electric drill. Mix until color is uniform and consistent.
   Note: Keep propeller below liquid line, as additional air can be added to mixture, resulting in air bubbles on the surface of the finished product.

Application
Instructions:

Brush a thin coat of epoxy onto the substrate to be duplicated, then pour Aluminum Liquid (F-2). Aluminum Liquid (F-2) cures in 16 hours, at which time it can be machined, drilled, or painted.
TO AVOID AIR ENTRAPMENT : Pour Aluminum Liquid (F-2) in a fine stream no greater than 1” thick to evacuate any trapped air. Let material set up and cool before pouring additional thicknesses.

Storage

Store at room temperature, 70 °F.
