Fabtech Epoxy Resin

Why use Epoxy?

• Produces lightweight, yet strong lamination. Fabtech Resin is much stronger than acrylic or polyester resins.

• Emits little or no odors and contains no styrene, making it the safest laminating resin on the market.

• Has an infinite shelf-life, free from product failure as a result of prolonged storage, regardless of whether or not the bottle seals have been broken.

• Has a low viscosity rating, providing easy wet out, or the ability to string out lamination much faster then either acrylic or polyester resins.

• Is the most economical resin to use. A complete kit costs less then other acrylic, polyester or epoxy resin products sold in one gallon quantities, and contains 20% more resin by volume. Plus, the lower viscosity rating of Fabtech Resin provides the ability to do more laminations per gallon then standard acrylic, epoxy or polyester resin products.

• Ships as a non-hazardous material, reducing the shipping costs within the US and Canada up to $25 per shipment.

• Allows for cured lamination to be spot-heated and adjusted with a heat gun, if the fiber lay-up of the lamination is set up correctly during fabrication.

• Has a curing rate that can be accurately controlled by applying heat to laminations after they have been strung out on the mold. This provides the ability to gel and cure the resin after the lamination has been strung out to the technician’s satisfaction.
