Tapecoat TC® 7100 Wet Bond Gray Epoxy is a surface tolerant epoxy developed for coating metal and concrete above and below fresh water. It provides an exceptional anti-corrosion coating for protecting bare steel, welded joints on factory-coated pipe, irregular fittings and surfaces.

TC 7100 is an innovative coating which can be applied underwater for the repair of damaged coatings on steel transmission pipes; steel, concrete, and sheet pilings; and lateral supports. It is ideal for above and below ground protection of metallic surfaces on pipes and compressor / pumping stations that endure splashes, condensation, or humidity.

TC 7100 is a two-part liquid epoxy system which can be used on damp, wet or dry metal surfaces as a one-coat stand-alone protective coating system for above and below grade application.

Basic Use

TC 7100 Wet bond-Gray is a corrosion preventive epoxy coating developed for coating metal and concrete surfaces above and below the water line. It is used to repair pipeline coatings, for coating irregular fittings and surfaces and is suitable for above and below ground as well as underwater applications.

Remove all contaminants that would impede bond. Use effective cleaning procedures to remove: salts, rust, dirt, oil and grease. This may include the use of high pressure fresh water cleaning, using suitable solvents or detergents to SSPC-SP-1, abrasive blast to SSPC-SP-6, or wire brush clean to SSPC-SP-2.

Environment: Use only where application and curing can proceed at temperatures above 40°F (4°C). The temperature of the surface and that of the coating itself must also be within these limits. Apply only on a clean surface. (See detailed Field Specifications for complete instructions.)

Mixing: Pour entire contents of hardener container into the resin container and mix thoroughly until homogeneously mixed, approx. 3-5 minutes.

Application Method: Apply epoxy by brush, pad or roller.
