On opening a container shelf life guarantee is forfeited and the contents should be used as soon as possible.

ancillary products
Pre-weighted kits

The pre-weighed kit affords the user with a hassle free method of mixing the product. The two components are supplied, already in the correct ratio, in a tin and bottle therefore there is no requirement for weighing out. To use it is a simple method of pouring the whole of the Activator / Hardener component into the Base / Resin component and mixing (recommended hand mixing methods available on request).
When choosing the most convenient size of container for application always bear in mind:
1. Gelation of material (the larger the mass mixed the less workable life. All technical specifications for gelation are based on 100 grams at 25°C)
2. The application (is an air free mix required and if so will this be achievable based on the gelation of material?)
3. Production run volumes (will the amount of material mixed be too much / too little for the intended production run?)
25 KG – recommended for long cure materials
5 KG – recommended for long cure materials
2.5 KG – recommended for long cure materials
1 KG – recommended for medium cure materials or fast cure where air release not required
0.5 KG – recommended for fast cure materials
0.25 KG – recommended for fast cure materials
Pre-weighed kits can be manufactured to requirement through prior agreement with the Sales office.
