Applications & Uses

Markets: Electrical & Electronics,
Paints & Coatings
Applications: Paints & Coatings — Industrial Coatings
Industrial Coatings
Electrical & Electronics — Wire & Cable
Jacketing & Insulation
Application Method: Brush,
Dip Coating,
Spray
Uses: ShieldSys 520 is formulated to provide unmatched utility in wire jacket removal due to its high lubricity and nonstick properties.
Recommended Application Procedure: Dipping and Flooding – The easiest and most
widely used method. A wiper system should be
used to strip off excess amounts, ensuring a thin,
even coating over the entire length of wire.

Spraying – Particularly effective in depositing a
very thin coating with excellent adhesion. This
system can be used with an automated or hand
spray gun.

Wiping or Brushing – Very effective for coating
small amounts of selected areas on a wire or
cable.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling: The precautions used in handling ShieldSys 520 release coating are the same as those used in handling most coatings in industrial use. Contact with the skin should be avoided. Adequate ventilation must be provided in work areas. Breathing vapors should be avoided. If spraying, care should be taken to avoid inhaling mist or vapors, just as sprayed paint inhalation should be avoided.
Vapor may develop slight pressure. Therefore, care should be exercised when opening containers. Containers should be closed promptly after removing part of the contents to avoid evaporation. If this product is exposed to extreme heat conditions from misuse or equipment failure, toxic decomposition products that include hydrogen fluoride can occur.Hydrogen fluoride has an ACGIH threshold limit value of 3 parts per million parts of air as a ceiling limit, an OSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 3 ppm of fluoride as an 8-hr time-weighted average, and 6 ppm of fluoride as a short-term exposure limit (STEL). Always wash hands after handling ShieldSys 520 coating. Do not smoke while handling this product.
Shelf-Life: ShieldSys 520 has a shelf life of 6 months from the date of shipment.
