What is Hydroplate 1086?
Hydroplate 1086 is an advanced high-solids polyamine epoxy coating from Carboline, designed as a self-priming lining and exterior coating for potable water and wastewater assets. This ultra-low VOC product provides exceptional corrosion protection for steel, concrete, and ductile iron substrates, certified by UL to meet NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and 600 standards for safe drinking water contact. Unlike traditional coatings, its ease of application and compliance with AWWA C210 and D102 systems make it ideal for new construction and maintenance projects, offering a durable solution with minimal environmental impact.
It resists thermal shock and abrasion, ensuring long-term performance in moderately corrosive environments without compromising safety or regulatory standards.
Key Features and Benefits of Hydroplate 1086
Hydroplate 1086 stands out with its ultra-low VOC (0.52 lbs/gal) and HAPs-free formulation, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations like SCAQMD standards. Its self-priming nature eliminates the need for additional primers, while offering excellent thermal shock and abrasion resistance for enhanced durability in water systems.
Benefits include certification to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and 600 for potable water safety, adherence to AWWA C210 and D102 systems, and suitability for moderate wastewater environments. The coating's high solids content (86% by volume) provides a robust barrier, making it a top choice for corrosion-resistant coatings in water infrastructure projects.
- NSF/ANSI 61 & 600 Certified: Ensures safe potable water contact.
- Low VOC & HAPs-Free: Environmentally friendly with minimal emissions.
- Versatile Application: Ideal for steel, concrete, and ductile iron substrates.

Hydroplate 1086 Installation in Water Treatment
How to Install Hydroplate 1086: A Step-by-Step Guide
Installing Hydroplate 1086 is a streamlined process, suitable for professionals and requiring standard application tools. This installation guide for epoxy lining ensures optimal performance in water infrastructure projects.
- Surface Preparation: Clean and dry surfaces; abrade steel to SSPC-SP10/NACE No. 2 for immersion (2–3.5 mil profile) or concrete to ICRI CSP 2–5.
- Mixing: Combine Part A and B in a 2:1 ratio. Power mix separately, then combine and power mix together. Allow a 15-minute induction (sweat-in) time before application. Pot life is 1¼ hours at 75°F.
- Application: Apply via airless or conventional spray at 4–10 mils DFT per coat. Brush and roller are acceptable for small areas and repairs only, yielding 2.5–3 mils per coat. Apply 2 or 3 coats; do not exceed 20 mils total DFT.
- Curing: At 75°F, allow 10 hours dry-to-recoat and 7 days for full immersion cure. UL certification for potable water requires 14 days cure to service (or 7 days with the additional cure option for tanks ≥70,000 gallons).
