HEMPADUR AvantGuard 750 is a two-component, activated zinc-rich epoxy primer in compliance with the requirements in ISO 12944 Part 5, 2007 and Level 2, type II in SSPC Paint 20, 2002. Can utilize ASTM D520, type II zinc dust.

Recommended use:

As a versatile primer for long-term protection of steel in severely corrosive environments.

Features:

• Reduces the effect of corrosion and offers excellent protection
• Good mechanical strength, also in cyclic temperatures, with improved crack resistance through highflexibility and self-healing of micro cracks
• High tolerance to different climatic conditions (high temperature and humidity) during application, as well as, to high dry film thickness
• Conforms to NORSOK M-501, Ed, 6, system no.1
