Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Package
Araldite® GY 6010 is supplied in bulk and in 240 kg. steel drums.
Storage & Handling
- Shelf life (at storage temperature between 10-50°C)
- 6 years
- Storage
This product has a minimum shelf life of four years when stored in unopened sealed containers in a dry location at room temperature. Like most liquid epoxy resins, Araldite® GY 6010 may crystallize when stored below room temperature. Heating the resin to 60-70°C (140- 160°F), for several hours will re-liquefy it and restore its original properties.
