JEFFCO 3161

2:1 LONG POT LIFE HARDENER

Back to Hardener page

Product Description:
Cycloaliphatic / polyamine hardener. Economical and versatile curing agent offering long pot life and very low exotherm with the ability to cure in damp environments. Low viscosity. Mild post cure (120º F - 130º F) will allow for higher HDT. Easy to use 2:1 mix ratio. 100% solids. Good chemical resistance, particularly to acids.     

Product Uses:
Hand lay-up laminating, vacuum bagging, castings, filament winding, construction adhesives and chemically resistant flooring.
