Ultra-Coat
(The Abrasion and Chemical Resistant Protective Coating.)
(Converts soft surfaces to sapphire hard)

Ultra-Coat is a matrix specially formulated mixture of Sapphire-hard spherical High Alumina Micro Beads doped in epoxy resin. Ultra-Coat is protective coating, providing a surface resistant to sliding abrasion and chemical attack (except Hydroflouric Acid).
Ultra-Coat’s thixotropic formulation permits both vertical and horizontal application. In addition, Ultra-coat can be cast or moulded into a variety of shapes and patterns.

Salient features

Ultra-Coat is most ideal coating wherever high wear retards Production and Boosts Costs, such as Launder and Feed Chutes, Chute linings, Rod and Ball mills, Feed Plates, Pan Feeders, Conveyor Skirts and Buckets, Dust Collectors and Cyclones, Soil and Rock Box outlets, Hoppers, Classifiers, Pipe and Slurry line Elbows, Coal Exhausters, Chip Cyclones, ID fan housings in the Coal Power, Sand and Gravel, Grain, Mineral processing Chemical and Paper Industries etc.

Advantages

–> Increases Equipment life
–> Saves down time
–> Reduces Operating Cost
–> Can be cast – molded
–> Out-performs other wear Coatings
–> Cost-Effective
–> Excellent to Convert soft surfaces in to corrosion, abrasive and Chemical resistant.

Processs of Application

dLTRA-COAT can be applied on any Ferrous-Non ferrous metals, ceramics, stone, concrete, plastics, wood etc. surfaces to convert them to sapphire hard, chemical and corrosion resistant.

dURFACE TREATMENT : Before applying Ultra-Coat on any surface, clean the surface area thoroughly make it free from rust, grease, oil, paint etc. Roughen the surface with coarse-sand paper or sand blast with S.A. 2 1/2 grade sand blasting to ensure the surface is clean and rough enough for better adhesion.

dIXING HARDENER TO FORM ULTRA-COAT : Take 96 % by wt. of Ultra matrix and add 4 % by wt. of hardener, gradually mix them with spatula, when Ultra-Coat forms thick paste of tooth paste consistency start applying on surface and finish the Ultra-Coat stock in 30 minutes, do not add any liquid or water for thinning. If thinning is required, we recommend to add in the matrix 0.5 to 1 0% xylene or acetone solvent.

dURING TIME : After coating the surface with Ultra-Coat leave it for setting for minimum 6 hrs at ambient temp. Lower the ambient temp., longer the curing time, thick coating cures faster than thin coating due to build up of internal heat. If desired speedy setting, heat up the coated surface area gently at 50 to 60°C for 3-4 hours, after 24 hours of drying in room temperature Alumna-Coated surface will be serviceable.

dO ENSURE SERVICEABLE SURFACE : To ensure, whether coating is properly cured or not, pierce your finger nail into the Ultra-Coat, if nail fails to pierce in, it indicates coating is cured and surface is serviceable, otherwise leave it for further period to cure up.

dLEANING OF TOOLS : We recommend to clean tools mixing vessels etc. used in mixing Ultra matrix with Acetone or Xylene.
