Product Description:
Tam Tech HC Form Coating is a one component, high performance coating designed for protecting all types of wood and metal forms with a high level of heat resistance. It is a 60% solids, self-leveling, very hard polymer that does not require any mixing since it is a single component product. Tam Tech HC Form Coating is ideal for pre-cast and cast-in-place applications providing a hard, durable surface to protect the forms. It greatly extends the life of wood and metal forms and provides a smooth surface.
Features & Benefits:
Technical Data & Specifications:
Mix Ratio: Single component
Color: Clear
Consistency: pourable, self-leveling
Tack Free Time: 4-5 Hours at 74 degrees F & 50% relative humidity
Initial Cure: 24 hours at 74 degrees F
Shore D Hardness: ASTM D-2240: 90
Tensile Strength: ASTM D-412: 5000 psi
Instructions:
The form surfaces should be clean and sound. Remove all concrete residue, dirt, oil, grease, and other loose materials. A light sanding of the forms will increase bond. Surfaces can be cleaned with a solvent wipe or an application of warm water with a detergent followed by a warm water rinse. Continue cleaning until water will no longer bead up on the forms. Remove all standing water. Let dry. Then clean with a vacuum or oil-free compressed air. Tam Tech HC Form Coating will not bond to a dirty or damp surface.
Then apply the material onto the forms with a short nap roller, brush or lambs wool applicator.
Product has a fast tack free time so keep a wet edge during application and do not back roll into coating. One gallon of material will cover about 300 to 400 square feet per gallon depending upon the surface texture. Two coats are recommended for best results. Wait until material is no longer tacky, then apply second coat. (Wait at least five hours and no more than 36 hours.) Then after cure (24 hours at 74 degrees F), apply form release to coating before pouring concrete.
Packaging:
Five gallon pails and 55 gallon drums
Cure Time:
Cure is 24 hours at 74 degrees F and 50% relative humidity.
Clean Up:
Clean material before it sets up. Use a solvent like xylene or acetone.
Limitations:
Store product above 40 degrees F (5 degrees C). Do not thin with solvents. Substrate and air temperature must be above 50 degrees F (10 degrees C) during application and curing. Check the relative humidity and the dew point. The surface temperature should be 6 degrees above the dew point.
High temperatures will accelerate the set time and cold temperatures will slow down the set time.
Shelf Life & Storage Temperature:
Nine months in unopened containers at 40 to 90 degrees F (5 to 32 degrees C)
Warning:
Flammable Mixture. Keep away from flame and heat. Provide adequate ventilation or if ventilation is poor, refer to MSDS for further information. Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors. Skin contact may cause irritation or redness. Remove clothing if contaminated and wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. For eye contact, flush with water for 15 minutes and call a physician.
Do not take internally. Use safety glasses and wear chemical resistant gloves. See MSDS for complete information. For industrial use only. Keep away from children. |
