15kg U RESIN 2473

U RESIN 2473 Epoxy Casting Compound is a 100% solids epoxy casting compound system which can be used to encapsulate a wide range of materials particularly electrical components. Typical applications include electrical encapsulation, mould backing and moulded epoxy components.

U RESIN 2473 Epoxy Casting Compound is a two pack epoxy with a 2:1 Ratio by WEIGHT, which is easily poured when mixed and can have a variety of fillers added to it. U RESIN 2473 Casting Compound has good resistance to chemicals. The two components can be mixed using a spatula or stirrer until a uniform grey colour is obtained.

One of the great features of U RESIN 2473 when mixed, develops a very low exothermic (heat) reaction. This low exothermic reaction is necessary when working with heat-sensitive components. This leads to lower shrinkage and greater compressive strength. The mix will cure at room temperature.

SURFACE PREPARATION – The surface should be free of loose material and all foreign matter such as dirt, oil and other contaminates. A solvent such as acetone may be used to clean the surface.

PREPARATION – It is important that the correct mix ratio is used and that the resin and hardener are thoroughly stirred before use and accurately weighed out. 

MIXING – Part A is White and Part B is Black. Mix until a uniform GREY colour is achieved. Mix both components together until a homogenous mix has been achieved. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing vessel to ensure this.
