Two-component Epoxy Suited for Centrifuge Repair

Engineered with a silicon carbide filler material, Master Bond’s EP21SC-1 delivers abrasion resistance for an array of chemical and mechanical processing applications. This epoxy has a smooth paste consistency and a non-critical one-to-one mix ratio by weight or volume.

As a two-part system, it cures readily at room temperature or more quickly at elevated temperatures. With a Shore D hardness exceeding 95, the epoxy is a rigid compound that has a good adhesion performance to treated metals, ceramics and many plastics.

Its physical strength profile includes a tensile strength >6,000 psi and a compressive strength of more than 15,000 psi at room temperature. Since the system is 100% reactive and does not contain any solvents or diluents, it has minimal shrinkage upon cure. Additionally, the two component epoxy is capable of withstanding a range of chemicals, such as water, oils, hydraulic fluids, acids and bases.

The combination of the aforementioned properties enables this system to be widely employed for maintenance and repair of pumps, chutes, centrifuges, impellers and tanks. The epoxy is serviceable from -60 to +250 F. It is a competent electrical insulator and has a low thermal expansion coefficient. Both Parts A and B are dark gray in color and are available in standard packaging ranging from pint to 5-gal container kits.
