HEAT-FLEX® 750

Revised: 08/23 Issue 2

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Heat-Flex® 750 is a high solids micaceous iron oxide filled alkylated amide epoxy providing both corrosion resistance and high temperature
resistance. The micaceous iron oxide provides higher temperature resistance, improved anticorrosion performance, film reinforcement, tolerance to
over film thickness, and lower moisture permeation.

INTENDED USES
• External protection for process pipes, valves and vessels operating continuously between the temperatures of -196°C and 204°C.
• Suitable for use on both carbon and stainless steel in insulated, uninsulated and cryogenic environments

SURFACE PREPARATION
All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to coating application, surfaces should be assessed and treated in
accordance with ISO 8504:2000. Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning.
Min recommended surface preparation:
Iron & Steel: Abrasive blast clean to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC-SP6/NACE 3, 50 - 75µm (2 - 3 mil) profile.
For weld areas and small touch up repairs, power tool cleaning to SSPC-SP11 is suitable. Optimal performance will be achieved with a minimum
surface profile of 2 mils (50 microns).
Stainless Steel: Abrasive blast clean SSPC-SP16 with non-metallic abrasive, 25µm (1 mil) profile.
