Megadure Ceramic is a two-component, high alumina bead epoxy paste designed for extreme abrasion resistance. It is ideal for protecting equipment in demanding industrial environments such as mines, coal-fired plants, and dredging operations. Available in both standard and quick-setting formulations, it offers flexibility for various project timelines. The green-cured paste can be applied by trowel or spatula, providing a durable lining and grouting solution for wear-resistant ceramic tiles and steel surfaces.
Cure Time: Standard set cures in 24-48 hours, while quick set cures in 12-24 hours, depending on temperature. For example, in a 25°C environment, quick set will fully cure in 12 hours, allowing for faster equipment turnaround.
Yield: A 2kg kit provides 0.5 m2 coverage at 2mm thickness, making it easy to calculate material requirements for large projects.
Application Temperature Range: Minimum application temperature is 10°C. Ensure surfaces are within this range for proper curing and adhesion.
Surface Preparation: Metals require grit blasting or mechanical abrasion and degreasing, while concrete needs to be free of grease and laitence, achieved by mechanical abrasion.
