    Applications & Uses

    Markets
    Mixing

    1 The pot life of Armorchock is short. Only mix a quantity of Armorchock that can be used before hardening begins. DO NOT mix Armorchock until sealing and damming have been completed. 2 Armorchock part A (resin) is provided in an oversized container which provides free space to accommodate the addition of the Armorchock part B (cure) and to provide sufficient mixing space. Add Armorchock part B to Armorchock part A. Pour the entire contents of the part B container into the part A container. 3 Mix at 100 rpm to 200 rpm with a powered mixing blade for three (3) to four (4) minutes. Take care to avoid splashing or incorporating air into the mixture.

    Surface Preparation

    All surfaces (grout bed, sole plates) should be smooth, clean and free of oil. The mainframe surface should be smooth, bright metal. Sharp frets should be ground smooth and any voids should be filled with Armor Plate 990 Epoxy Putty.

    Application

    1 Provide a form that is 0.75″ higher than the top of the chock and 0.75″ wider than the chock so as to provide a material reservoir and head. This additional space will reduce voids and air entrapment in the pour. 2 Pour mixed Armorchock into forms. When pouring Armorchock do not scrape unmixed material from the side of the mix container into the chock area.
