PROTAL 7000
High Build Pipeline Coating - Brush Grade
 
 Description
Protal 7000 is a VOC free, 100% solids epoxy coating specially formulated to
compliment FBE coated pipelines. It is a high build liquid coating that is hand
applied in one coat to many areas during pipeline construction in the field or
shop. It cures fast to allow quick backfill when necessary.
 Uses
On-site liquid coating of girth welds, tie-ins, welds for boring applications,
repairs to FBE, fittings and fabrication. It may also be used for rehabilitation
of existing pipeline.

 Features
   
  Fast cure
   High build (in one coat)
   Can be applied with brush or roller
   Excellent adhesion (compliments FBE coated pipe)
 High abrasion resistance for drilling applications
  Safe and environmentally responsible
  Does not shield cathodic protection

Application


Prepare surfaces by grit blasting to a clean near white finish, SSPC-SP 10/ NACE No. 2. Mix each of the base and hardener to an even consistency. Add the hardener to base and mix until an even color is achieved making sure all sides of container are scraped. Immediately pour mixed material onto surface and brush, trowel or roll to required mil thickness. A wet film thickness gauge shall be used to measure mil thickness. If surface temperature falls below 50°F (10°C), surface must be preheated to maintain good application properties. Preheat may be achieved with a propane torch or induction coil. Base component shall be kept warm, at a minimum of 68°F (20°C), to achieve easy mixing properties
