SAND COATINGS - GRAPHLITE 342
Alcohol Based Graphite Refractory Coating
DESCRIPTION: GRAPHLITE 342 is a graphite refractory coating designed for both ferrous and non-ferrous applications. GRAPHLITE 342 can be applied by brushing, dipping, spraying or flow coating. The rheological properties of GRAPHLITE 342 contribute to improved workability and consistency, thus providing improved surface finish and casting quality. Because of the excellent suspension of GRAPHLITE 342, minimal settling occurs which allows for easy re-dispersion. The coating is designed to be reduced with Isopropyl alcohol at the customer’s facility.
