Application
- Epoxy Resin 505 / Hardner 509 / Accelerator is suitable for casting, potting and encapsulation of electrical and electronic components such as switch gears bushing, current a voltage transformers, bus bar support assembly. Due to fast gelling behavior at high temperature TAB systems is ideally suitable for manufacturing of casting by pressure gelation technique
- Recommended for Glass fiber impregnation / lamination by lay up or Pultrusion technique
- 3. Ideal for impregnation of electrical machines suitable for temperature class F
