Delivering abrasion resistance for an array of chemical and mechanical processing applications, the EP21SC-1 is a 2 component epoxy from Master Bond.

Engineered with a silicon carbide filler material, the epoxy has a smooth paste consistency and a non-critical one to one mix ratio by weight or volume. As a two part system, it cures readily at room temperature or more quickly at elevated temperatures. Delivering a Shore D hardness exceeding 95, the rigid compound adheres well to treated metals, ceramics and many plastics. Its physical strength profile includes a tensile strength greater than 6,000 psi and a compressive strength of over 15,000 psi at room temperature.

Due to the system being 100% reactive and not containing any solvents or diluents, the epoxy has minimal shrinkage upon cure. Further to this, the epoxy is is capable of withstanding a range of chemicals such as water, oils, hydraulic fluids, acids and bases. The combination of the aforementioned properties enables this system to be widely employed for maintenance and repair of pumps, chutes, centrifuges, impellers and tanks.

Serviceable from -60°F to +250°F, the EP21SC-1 is a competent electrical insulator and has a low thermal expansion coefficient. Both Parts A and B are dark gray in color and are available in standard packaging ranging from pint to 5 gallon container kits.
