New Epoxy System Designed for Mold-Making

Fielco, LLC, the innovator in high technology adhesives formulation, introduces a new high performance, medium viscosity two-component epoxy resin system. FCO 9550 is designed as a template for an injection mold process. Once cured, FCO 9550 serves as a durable, non-porous and heat-resistant injection mold. The system has other significant features, including multiple and prolonged cycles without degradation, excellent release characteristics for most rubber-based substrates, and a sufficiently high modulus to withstand extreme injection mold pressures.

Fielco's Iris™ 5060 UV Cure for PVC Substrates

Fielco, LLC, leading innovator in specialty adhesive formulations, introduces an unusual new product designed for joining PVC materials. Their Iris™ 5060 is an ultraviolet curable, 100% solids flexible adhesive specifically formulated to bond PVC, ABS, EPDM, and various other rubbers. What makes this system especially interesting is its ability to use a dark cure after UV exposure to bond substrates together after UV curing.

Iris™ 5060 features the benefits of an epoxy cured adhesive system, in addition to the benefits of a fast curing adhesive. For more information contact Michael Petrakis directly at Fielco (800) 825-7156 (outside the United States (215) 674-8700).

New Fielco UV Curable Glass Adhesive

Fielco, LLC, leading innovator in high technology adhesives formulations, introduces a new UV Curable Adhesive designed for joining glass to rigid substrates. Their Iris™ 5070 is a radiation curable 100% solids, self-laminating adhesive that has the ability to join glass pieces to one another, or to metal substrates. This system was designed for low viscosity, and when fully cured delivers very low shrinkage. Iris 5070™ also has shown to have a faster initial cure response versus free radical acrylic systems.

Fielco's Iris™ 5070 also has the advantage of lower toxicity and reduced skin irritation compared to standard acrylic-based UV curable glass adhesives. For more information contact Michael Petrakis directly at Fielco (800) 825-7156 (outside the United States (215) 674-8700).

Fielco, LLC Introduces UV Curable Release Coating

The latest new adhesives formulation from Fielco, LLC, leader in specialty and custom adhesives products, is a solvent-free, low viscosity, UV-curing release coating that is compatible with both paper and film substrates. Iris™ 5080 provides easy release properties, with excellent adhesion to low surface energy substrates.

Iris™ 5080 cures to a semi-rigid film, offering excellent slip and good chemical resistance properties. For more information contact Michael Petrakis directly at Fielco (800) 825-7156 (outside the United States (215) 674-8700).

Clean Coating Safely with Fielco 334 LV Cleaner

From Fielco Industries, leader in innovative coatings, sealants, and adhesives comes an extremely effective non-VOC cleaner. The 334 LV cleaning system is a non-flammable, high boiling, non-halogenated based water rinsable cleaning and stripping solution. It ;vas specifically formulated to replace high VOC paint strippers and methylene chloride cleaners. Cleaner 334LV exhibits very high solvent activity over a broad range of resins commonly used in paint and coating formulations. The system solvates lacquer type systems, two component epoxy systems and is highly effective in solvating both acrylic and polyurethane formulations. When desired, the rate of solvent activity can be increased by raising the temperature of Cleaner 334 LV.

Fielco Potting Material 7409 Electronics Encapsulation Under Proven Conditions

When you need to encapsulate electronic components that are subject to difficult conditions, select Fielco potting material 07409. This product gives excellent protection from heat, extreme cold, and the severe weather conditions usually found in outdoor applications. Proven in thousands of telephone boxes and other locations with nominal protection, this material will also provide coverage for less severe conditions. Fielco's 7409 potting material also gives measured resistance to shocks and vibration, since there is very little embedded stress in the material. For more information on Fielco 7409 potting material contact Fielco directly at (800) 825-7156 (outside of the United States (215) 674-8700) and ask for a technical service representative, or access our website directly at http://www.fielco.com.

Fielco Masterweld 5977A/ 977B Creates Superior Flap Wheel Adhesion

Fielco, LLC Masterweld 5977A/ activator 977B is proven to be particularly effective epoxy for fabricating abrasive flap wheels and bonding nylon hubs to coated abrasives. It has excellent adhesion to metals, abrasive flap pads, and many different plastics. This product can also be used as a pourable casting resin which quickly fills large voids while simultaneously preventing excessive penetration through small gaps. This fast-setting, high strength epoxy cures in thin films (30 mils) in 2-3 hours at 72 degrees F. Adequate bond strength is developed generally within 6-8 hours, with slight improvement in strength continuing for one week. Elevated temperature cure cycle of 2 hours at 170 degrees F. will develop slightly improved properties. For more information on Masterweld 5977A/ 977B contact Fielco, LLC at (800) 825-7156 (outside the United States (215) 674-8700) or through our website at http://www.fielco.com.

Mastergrip 1000 Keeps Your Paint Rollers Rolling

From Fielco Industries, leader in specialty adhesives and coatings, comes Mastergrip 1000, a new formulation for phenolic tube winding. This innovative product is a one-part self crosslinking adhesive of waterbased latex. It is designed to be used in both RF and oven cured manufacturing. Benefits include rapid tack and excellent water resistance, while maintaining important phenolic core rigidity for paint roller durability. Application is simple: spread a thin layer of Mastergrip 1000 on the phenolic surface for bonding. If desired, you may coat both surfaces. Surfaces can be bonded immediately once the adhesive is applied, and roller core should be assembled while the adhesive is wet to the touch. Open time is determined by temperatures of the room, the oven, and the other components. For more information contact Fielco, LLC at (800) 825-7156, or outside the US at (215) 674-8700.
