EC-433 aluminum filled epoxy casting systems are developed for use in heat resistant tooling applications such as prototype injection molding, vacuum forming, and other high temperature cast tooling applications. EC-433 offers 3 hardener options with various working times, suitable for any tool size. EC-433 is a room temperature hardening (B Stage) system, but a post cure is necessary for use over 66°C/150°F. Tools made with EC-433 can be used at continuous temperatures of 160°C/300°F and intermittent temperatures up to 177°C/350°F. EC-433 features easy mixing, accepts higher loading of bulk aluminum, and exhibits greater dimensional stability.
Features:
- filled casting resin [3 hardener options]
- 270 Minute Work Life
- Grey
Versatile systems developed for casting molds that require heat resistance of 160°C/320°F and intermittent use up to 191°C/375°F, with consistent strength and impact properties. Three hardener systems offer the toolmaker alternatives for mass casting thickness. Use with high-temp epoxy surface coats: ES-225 or ES-229 when adding N-20 or N-50 aluminum bulk filler for casting larger masses.
Applications: Typical Applications Include: Vacuum Form Molds, Compression Molds, Prototype Injection Moldings, RIM Molds, Foam Molds and other High Temp Cast Applications.
