TC
7025 EZ FLOW EPOXY
Field Applied
Joint Epoxy
for Plant Coated Pipes

Ideal for coating joints, fittings and
irregular surfaces
in above and below ground applications

Description
Tapecoat TC® 7025 EZ FLOW EPOXY
is a versatile liquid epoxy for the protection of pipe and metal
structures from corrosion in both above and below grade
environments. It is a two-part liquid epoxy system can be used as a
one-coat stand-alone protective coating to isolate the metal
substrate from the detrimental effects of electrolysis. It is an
environmentally friendly, 100% solids coating that contains no VOC’s
(volatile organic compounds).
TC 7025 provides exceptional
corrosion prevention for protecting joints, patching pipeline
coatings, and covering irregular fittings and metal surfaces. This
innovative product can be used in conjunction with all factory and
field coatings, such as cold and hot applied tape, coal tar enamel,
extruded polyethylene, and fusion bonded epoxy. It is applied to a
dry, properly prepared surface, either manually or with the use of a
power spray unit designed for such purpose. It can be applied to a
thickness up to 25 mils, providing a tough resistant barrier when
exposed to backfill and soil stress. It is an easy alternative to
the complex and lengthy application process of field-applied powder
epoxy coatings.

Surface Preparation
Remove all contaminants that would
impede bond. Use effective cleaning procedures to remove: moisture,
salts, rust, dirt and dust, oil and grease. This may include the use
of high pressure fresh water cleaning, using suitable solvents or
detergents to SSPC-SP-1, and abrasive blast to SSPC-SP-6.
Application
-
Environment: Use only where application and curing can proceed
at temperatures above 40ºF (4ºC). The temperature of the surface and
that of the coating itself must also be within these limits. Apply
only on a dry and clean surface with a temperature above the dew
point to avoid condensation. Relative humidity maximum is 90%
preferably between 40-60% (See detailed field specificatons for
complete instructions.)
-
Mixing:
Pour entire contents of hardener into the resin container and mix
thoroughly for approximately 2 to 3 minutes until homogenously
mixed.
- Application Method: Apply
epoxy by brush, pad or roller. For spray application use TC 7025
spray grade epoxy .
