400 °F to 550 °F Coatings
Coating systems for corrosion protection and durability in moderate-heat environments.
Protection for Moderate Heat Equipment
Equipment operating between 400 °F and 550 °F can be exposed to elevated temperatures, moisture, corrosive byproducts, and environmental conditions that exceed the limits of conventional industrial finishes.
For these applications, Forrest recommends a two-coat primer and topcoat system designed for cyclones, ductwork, process equipment, and other industrial components exposed to moderate heat and corrosive operating conditions.
54H050 High Temperature Primer
A silicone epoxy co-polymer primer designed to provide corrosion resistance and adhesion in ambient and high temperature environments.
