ShieldSys™ 1400 is highly durable coating and can be used on numerous industrial application such as extruder heads to aid with material release and ease of process. Our coating will last considerably longer than other coatings because its low coefficient of friction, high temperature stability, and enhanced adhesion to surfaces. Due to its thin-film technology and cross-linking chemistry it provides a extremely robust vapor and moisture barrier allows liquids and solids to quickly wick off the surface – excellent hydrophobicity. Stain and Mar resistance is high value benefit observed with this silicone industrial coating.
ShieldSys™ 1400 is formulated to provide unmatched utility in numerous industrial applications which require a highly durability, high slip, and high-temperature stable thin-film coating. Hostile environments, such as intense UV radiation, temperature fluctuations and acid rain, mar the appearance of coatings. ShieldSys 1400 modified coatings are many times more durable than most coatings that contain pure organic binders and are more weather resistant. They are less sensitive to environmental factors, retain their value and have a much longer lifetime.
- Recommended Application Procedure
- The surface to be coated must be clean, dry and at room temperature.
- Mix together a small amount of ShieldSys™ 1400A and ShieldSys™ 1400B in a 1:1 ratio.
- Wipe or spray a very thin coat and wait 15 minutes. Apply a second coat in the same manner and wait 15 minutes.
- Once fully dry, lightly buff the surface.
- Heat coated item to 100°C for a minimum of 15 minutes to fully cure the coating before use.

Storage & Handling
- Pot Life
Once mixed in the proper ratio the product should be kept in an airtight container when not in use. Maximum pot-life of the mixed coating is 48 hrs. in an airtight container.
- Storage and Handling
The precautions used in handling ShieldSys™ 1400 release coating are the same as those used in handling most coatings in industrial use. Contact with the skin should be avoided. If spraying, care should be taken to avoid inhaling mist or vapors, just as sprayed paint inhalation should be avoided.
If this product is exposed to extreme heat conditions from misuse or equipment failure, toxic decomposition products can occur. Always wash hands after handling ShieldSys™ 1400 coating.
- Shelf-Life
ShieldSys™ 1400 has a shelf life of 12 months from the date of shipment.
