Amerlock 2 and Amerlock 400 are high-performance, two-component, high-solids epoxy coatings produced by PPG Protective & Marine Coatings. They are designed for industrial and marine environments, offering excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and adhesion to various surfaces. Although they share many similarities, each has distinct characteristics that make them suitable for specific applications. 

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. 

Coverage rate: 
Amerlock 2:
- 4 mils: ~350 SF/gallon
- 8 mils: ~176 SF/gallon

Amerlock 4:
- 4 mils: ~330 SF/gallon
- 8 mils  ~165 SF/gallon

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.

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.
Common Applications:
  • 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.

DELIVERY TIME: Typically 4-7 business days following receipt of order.
