Belzona 5892

An epoxy coating for corrosion and chemical protection of high temperature equipment operating under immersion.

A 2-part epoxy coating applied by brush or heated airless spray for corrosion protection of metallic surfaces in contact with aqueous solutions at temperatures up to 95°C (203°F).

This solvent-free material offers good chemical resistance against a wide range of chemicals and protects equipment from the effects of corrosion, salt, water and environmental damage. It will cure at ambient temperature without the need for additional heat, eliminating health and safety hazards.

Belzona 5892 exhibits low surface bloom and excellent inter-coat adhesion enabling 2-coat application without the need for frost blasting. It has been formulated in light colours to assist visibility and provide good inspection characteristics in poorly lit vessels.

This material can also be used for the creation of irregular load bearing shims with good electrical insulation characteristics.

Key benefits:

Effectively protects equipment operating under constant immersion up to 95°C (203°F)
Suitable for contact with hot potable water, approved by WRAS and NSF/ANSI 61
Post cures in service
Long-term corrosion resistance
Reduced health and safety risks as it is solvent-free
Easy application by brush or heated airless spray and cure at room temperature - no hot work involved
Two coat system with a long overcoat window
Will outperform conventional glass flake coatings
Good chemical resistance against a wide range of chemicals
Excellent bonding to many surfaces including cast iron, stainless steel, brass, copper, concrete, wood, fiberglass and aluminum

Applications for Belzona 5892 include:

Lining of equipment such as vessels, separators, condensers, evaporators, knockout drums, diffusers and heat exchangers operating at high temperature
Repair of existing equipment linings
Protection of tanks and secondary containment areas from chemicals and the effects of corrosion
Coating of pipelines prone to corrosion damage
Creation of irregular load bearing shims
