POLYCAST- 250

FLEXIBLE, LOW CTE, SHOCK RESISTANT EPOXY COMPOUND

DESCRIPTION

PC 250 is a flexible, non-abrasive filled 100% solids epoxy system. It is a resin which exhibits low coefficient of thermal expansion and exceptional shock resistance. PC 250 is designed in such a way that the mix ratio is 1:1 by volume. It is a room temperature cure, has excellent moisture resistance, and is also machine dispensable.
