Amerlock 2/400 Expoxy Coating 2 Gallon Kit
The 2-gallon kits include a 1-gallon Amerlock 2/400 base and either 1-gallon Amerlock 2 or 1-gallon Amerlock 400, depending on the desired product.
Amerlock 2
Amerlock 2 is a fast-drying, surface-tolerant, high-solids epoxy coating with a low VOC (volatile organic compound) content. It cures quickly, even at low temperatures (down to -10°C/14°F). It is known for its superior chemical resistance and ability to adhere to damp or marginally prepared surfaces, including those with tightly adhering rust.
Coverage rate:
Key Features:
-
Fast dry time (dry to touch in as little as 3 hours at 20°C/68°F, recoatable in 6 hours).
-
High solids content (approximately 85%).
-
Can be applied over damp surfaces or adherent rust.
-
Temperature resistance up to 450°F (232°C) for non-immersion service when properly prepared.
-
Steel structures in industrial facilities (e.g., factories, warehouses).
-
Marine applications (e.g., offshore platforms, ships, docks).
-
Water and wastewater treatment plants.
-
Power generation facilities.
-
Public infrastructure (e.g., bridges, steel fabrication).
Amerlock 400
Description: Amerlock 400 is a versatile, high-solids epoxy coating (approximately 83% solids) that serves as a self-priming topcoat over most existing coatings. It cures through a wide temperature range and offers excellent chemical resistance to splash, spillage, fumes, and immersion in neutral, fresh, or saltwater. It has a longer pot life compared to Amerlock 2, making it suitable for larger projects.
Key Features:
- Self-priming and compatible with most tightly adhering coatings.
- Available in a variety of colors (including aluminum).
- Low solvent content reduces pinholing and solvent entrapment.
- Can be applied in areas where blasting is impractical.
Where It’s Used: Amerlock 400 is widely used in general maintenance applications across tough industrial, marine, and offshore environments where durability and chemical resistance are critical.
Common Applications:
- Tank exteriors and interiors (e.g., oil tanks, water towers).
- Piping and structural steel in industrial plants.
- Marine weathering protection (e.g., offshore oil rigs).
- Bridges and roofs.
- Concrete and metal floors in facilities exposed to chemical spills or weathering.
