10538057-35 WEICON Repair Stick Stainless Steel (-filled) non- corrosive

Repair Stick Stainless Steel

Technical Datasheet

Non-corrosive, fast cure stainless steel-filled NSF approval, can be used in drinking water areas

For non-corrosive repair and reconditioning of stainless steel and other rustproof metals, such as those in tanks and containers, filling and packing machines, pipes, lines, pumps and housings.

Due to the quick mechanical loading capacity of the mended parts (approx. 60 minutes), expensive and longer downtimes are avoided.

The WEICON Repair Stick Stainless Steel can be used in tank construction and apparatus engineering, in the foods, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries and in many other applications.

Pretreatment of the surface To ensure a perfect bond, the surfaces to be joined must be clean and dry (e.g., clean and degrease using WEICON Surface Cleaner). Smooth surfaces should be roughened, e.g. by sandblasting.

Processing WEICON Repair-Sticks cover gaps of max. 15 mm per procedure. The  pot life given is for a material quantity of 25 g at room temperature. If
larger quantities are used, the curing time will be faster due to the  typical reaction heat of epoxy resins (exothermic reaction). Similarly, higher ambient temperatures shorten the cure time (as a rule  of thumb, every +10°C increase above room temperature will halve  working and curing time). Temperatures below +16°C will extend  working and curing times considerably, while below about +5°C, no  reaction will take place at all.

Storage When kept at a constant room temperature of about +20°C and unopened in dry conditions, WEICON Repair Sticks will keep for at least 18 months. Avoid direct sunlight.
