Product information Strippable plastic coating Uses To provide long term protection for machined parts, cutting edges and spares from corrosion and mechanical damage during storage and delivery. The clear coating allows easy identification of the protected parts. When removed the coating leaves behind a thin protection film providing short term protection. The stripping can be melted and reused. Cold – Clear amber hard plastic Hot – Clear amber liquid Applications Ensure components are clean and free of surface contamination, especially fingerprints. Plug large orifices with Kantmelt Grease PJ 3 or cover with non-corrosive plastic adhesive tape. The working temperature of ISOLOX is 130 °C to 160 °C. Do not exceed the maximum temperature as this will accelerate degradation. After melting maintain the ISOLOX at the working temperature for 15 mins to allow the melt to degas. It is beneficial to stir the ISOLOX throughout this period. Suspend the component by a braided nylon thread then completely immerse in the molten ISOLOX withdraw after 3 to 5 seconds, allow to hang freely until cooled down, cut off the thread level with coating and seal the hole using a hot iron. Hints Add new ISOLOX to the melt frequently to maintain the working temperature level. When adding fresh ISOLOX gently stir the melt to ensure complete homogeneity. Care should be exercised when selecting the size of dip pot, consideration should be given to the size and quantity of components to ensure a smooth operation without unnecessary waste. Periodically empty the melting equipment, cleanout and replenish with fresh ISOLOX. This can be done by partially immersing hooked irons in the melt and holding in position until the ISOLOX has set. Switch on the heat for a few minutes and lift any carbonaceous deposits from the sides of the melting equipment. If the ISLOX is excessively darkened do not return it to the melting equipment, replace with new ISOLOX. If the tank is too small to dip large components, use the double dip method. Immerse just over half the product, when the coating is set, immerse the untreated half, overlapping the original coat by at least 3 cm. imt Zinssmeister OHG Frauenwaldstraße 11 82383 Hohenpeißenberg Telefon: +49 8805/95990-29 Telefax: +49 8805/95990-28 E-Mail: info@imt-zinss
