For Ductile Iron and Cast Iron Valves
Flomatic Ductile Iron and Cast Iron Valves are coated internally and externally with a fusion bonded epoxy coating in compliance with ANSI/AWWA C550 standards. The epoxy coating provides superior abrasion and corrosion resistance
Product Description: Resicoat® R4-ES HJF42R Blue is a high-quality thermosetting epoxy powder coating for the corrosion protection of valves and fittings, manufactured from cast iron or steel. The powder coating is available to be applied in one layer on a preheated surface by electrostatic spray application or fluidized bed application. Typical film thickness achieved is in the range of 250 – 500 µm. The resultant thermoset epoxy has a high mechanical resistance with excellent electrical insulation properties. Drinking water approvals are available to confirm the coatings suitability, as a hygienic and environmental friendly coating. The outstanding adhesion of Resicoat R4® epoxy powders to the metal substrate provides long term protection of the coated component. It ensures a reliable conservation to the function and value of the parts for the common water and gas distribution network. The applicator of Resicoat® R4 benefits from a modern and environmentally friendly process.
