Key benefits:
- Outstanding protection against cavitation at ultra-high velocities (up to 115 knots with no damage)
- Excellent protection against abrasion, erosion and corrosion
- Application and cure at room temperature – no hot work involved
- Excellent adhesion to a wide variety of substrates including metals, alloys, natural and synthetic rubbers fibreglass and composites
- Can be applied using injection and forming techniques
- Excellent adhesion in long-term immersion – meets the ASTM D3623 requirements (90 day immersed cathodic disbondment test)
- Reduced health and safety risks as it is solvent-free
- High elongation – up to 530%
- Good chemical resistance to a wide variety of chemicals
Applications for Belzona 2141 (ACR-Fluid Elastomer) include:
- Coatings of cooling water pump impellers, wicket gates and stay vanes
- Anti-cavitation coating on Kaplan and Francis turbines
- Creation of a protective coating on ship propellers and Kort nozzles to provide long-term cavitation, erosion and corrosion protection
- Protective coating on shafts, valves and filters to prevent the effects of erosion and cavitation
