Chemical Resistant Epoxy Tank Lining Offer Convenient Self-Priming Performance
(ST. LOUIS - June 6, 2005) Steelcote Manufacturing announces its EPO-LINE 164 industrial epoxy lining for steel and concrete tanks. This coating is engineered to be used with or without fiberglass reinforcement. EPO-LINE 164 is a self-priming coating that provides superior chemical resistance to a wide range of acids, including sulfuric acid, alkalis and solvents.
EPO-LINE 164 is a brush, roller or trowel-applied 100% solids, odorless epoxy. The product dries to a hard, dense, high gloss finish that offers excellent abrasion resistance. EPO-LINE 164 is used to store chemicals kept at high temperatures (up to 400oF/204oC depending on the chemical and concentration) without affecting the integrity of the coating.
For ease of application EPO-LINE 164 offers a long pot life (20-30 minutes) and a relatively fast dry time (6 hours to the touch).
When applied to steel substrates, EPO-LINE 164 does not require a primer. On new or existing concrete substrates, EPO-LINE 164 requires epoxy primer. Steelcote offers a variety of primers and penetrating sealers for this application.
According to information from the manufacturer, "Steelcote's EPO-LINE 164 is ideal for protecting tanks, containment areas, cooling towers, pulp and paper mills, sewage treatment facilities, ducts, scrubbers and floors exposed to aggressive chemicals and solvents."
