FE-100 Epoxy System

   
  FE-100 is a 100% solids 2 component bisphenol A epoxy system designed as a coating/liner for concrete pipe, manholes and secondary containment applications. FE-100 is provided in a convenient pre-measured two package kit complete with mixing container for ease in field applications. Excellent adhesion to concrete and steel surfaces.
FE-100 provides excellent resistance to sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, detergent, bleach and gasoline. PCS-30 primer is recommended to reduce pinhole formations and improve adhesion values.

Directions for use:  
 

Surface must be clean and free from contamination. Concrete surfaces must be prepared according to NACE Standard RP0892-92. All surfaces must be free from dust, moisture, oils and contaminates. Concrete must be a minimum of 28 days old. Concrete surfaces must be primed with PCS-30 or PCS-32 according to manufactures instructions. Application of FE-100 must meet manufacturers applications specifications. Please contact PCSI for details.


Carefully open each prepackaged container and add to mix vessel. Mix contents of part A and part B using a Jiffy type mixer until uniform color is achieved.


Application may be made either with a stiff paste brush or steel trowel to a thickness of 65 mils. Work the FE-100 into the surface by applying and finishing in a crosshatch pattern.


Non Skid Coating: To provide non-skid attributes, or a textured finish, apply a base coat of FE-100 to a cleaned and primed surface. Immediately broadcast sand aggregate and allow to dry for 24 hours. After cure, brush off excess aggregate. Apply a 10-20 mil topcoat of FE-100 and allow to cure. Adjust the particle size and amount of aggregate to achieve desired texture.

   
Safety:  
  Consult FE-100 A/B MSDS prior to using material. Use proper ventilation and respiratory equipment when applying. Protect skin and eyes from exposure. Follow disposal methods in accordance with local and federal disposal regulations.
