ALRESIST® TWC is a two-part trowelable
epoxy repair compound containing 50% by volume sapphire
hard (9 mohs) alumina ceramic beads (Al2O3) and silicon
carbide particles. Easy to mix and apply, the thixotropic
paste is self curing. ALRESIST® TWC can be used as
a protective coating or to repair worn areas in material
handling equipment or components conveying abrasive materials.

Application temperature:
up to 232°C / 450°F depending
on application and geometry.
| Installation: |
- Read the product label
and the material safety data sheet
furnished with TWC.
- Clean surfaces before applying.
Dirt, oil, water, scale, ice,
or wax will prevent adhesion.
- Mix thoroughly with a spatula.
Using a plastic container for mixing retains
heat better. The pot
life is about 30 minutes.
- Spread and smooth ALRESIST®
TWC by drawing a trowel moistened with solvent
or water across the surface of the uncured compound.
- Clean tools and equipment
with solvent before TWC cures.
- Cure time is 4 to 5 hours.
Cure can be accelerated by warming with a heat
gun. (Altering the A:B ratio will not make the
epoxy cure faster.) Cold temperatures will slow
or retard the cure and thicken the paste. In
colder temperatures, warm mixture to 24C°
/ 75°F before applying. In hot environments,
mix smaller quantities.
