Aluminum Wear Compound
Description: Blended aluminum-filled epoxy putty, used to repair fatigued metal surfaces where exceptional durability and ruggedness
is required.
Intended Use: Product designed to repair leading edges of molds that have worn because of abrasion or constant use. Material can
adhere to all metal surfaces and withstand wear and abrasiion in a constant demolding application.
Product Fills voids or pores in castings
features: Protects metal from bi-metallic corrosion
No-shrink curing
Application Spread mixed material to repair area and work firmly into substrate to ensure maximum surface contact. Aluminium Wear
Instructions: Compound fully cures in 24 hours, at which time it can be machined, drilled, or painted.
FOR BRIDGING LARGE GAPS OR HOLES
Place fiberglass sheet, expanded metal, or mechanical fasteners between repair area and Aluminium Wear Compound
prior to application.
FOR VERTICAL SURFACE APPLICATIONS
Aluminium Wear Compound can be troweled up to 3/4" thick without sagging.
FOR MAXIMUM PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Cure at room temperature for 12-16 hours, then heat cure for 2 hours at 150°F.
FOR 70°F APPLICATIONS
Applying epoxy at temperatures below 70°F lengthens functional cure and pot life times. Conversely, applying above 70°F
shortens functional cure and pot life.
CURING INSTRUCTIONS
Aluminium Wear Compound will cure in a thick section, [ >1/2" thick] at 75°F in 4 hours. The material will be fully cured in
16 hours for full chemical immersion.
