New industrial epoxy lining for steel and concrete tanks

Steelcote Manufacturing announces its EPO-LINE 164 industrial epoxy lining for steel and concrete tanks. This coating is engineered to be used with or without fiberglass reinforcement. EPO-LINE 164 is a self-priming coating that provides superior chemical resistance to a wide range of acids, including sulfuric acid, alkalis and solvents. EPO-LINE 164 is a brush, roller or trowel-applied 100% solids, odorless epoxy. The product dries to a hard, dense, high gloss finish that offers excellent abrasion resistance. EPO-LINE 164 is used to store chemicals kept at high temperatures up to 400ºF depending on the chemical and concentration without affecting the integrity of the coating.

For ease of application EPO-LINE 164 offers a long pot life, 20-30 minutes, and a relatively fast dry time, 6 hours to the touch. When applied to steel substrates, EPO-LINE 164 does not require a primer. On new or existing concrete substrates, EPO-LINE 164 requires epoxy primer. Steelcote offers a variety of primers and penetrating sealers for this application.
