LIMITATIONS:

For pour depths less than 12 mm (½ inch) or greater than 76 mm (3 inches) contact Unitex technical support. Minimum application temperature 50oF. Do not thin. Solvents will prevent proper cure.

APPLICATION

1. SURFACE PREPARATION: Substrate must be free of oil, grease, and other contaminants. Steel surfaces should sandblasted to white metal finish. Sharp edges should be smoothed.

2. FORM: Open cell foam should be compressed between the frame and foundation to construct a water-tight form. Foundation bolts and jacking bolts should be wrapped with a 1/8" layer of weather stripping or neoprene foam. The entire chock area must be sprayed with release agent. Check the chock area for any possible locations that could cause a leak. MACHINERY MUST BE IN FINAL ALIGNMENT POSITION PRIOR TO POURING PRO-POXY CHOCK.

3. MIXING: Resin and hardener should be conditioned to between 18o C (65oF) and 29oC (85oF) for at least 12 hours before use. Pour Part B into the Part A container and mix thoroughly for 3 to 4 minutes with a low speed drill at 200 rpm. Keep the mixer completely submerged to prevent air entrainment. Remove material completely from around the sides and bottom of the container with a spatula to ensure a complete and uniform mix.

4. POURING: Always pour PRO-POXY CHOCK from the lowest side of the chock area which will force air to escape through the opposite corner. Continue to pour slowly until the entire chock area is filled and the chock overpour area is filled to a level approximately 12 mm (1/2 inch) above the bottom of the bedplate.

CAUTION

Component "A" Irritant: Prolonged contact with skin may cause irritation. Avoid eye contact.

Component "B" Corrosive: Contact with skin may cause severe burns. Avoid skin contact.

Product is a strong sensitizer. Use of safety goggles and chemicalresistant gloves recommended. Avoid breathing vapors. Use adequate ventilation. Use of a NIOSH/MSHA organic vapor respirator recommended if ventilation is inadequate.

FIRST AID

Remove contaminated clothing. For eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes; contact physician immediately. For respiratory problems, remove person to fresh air. For skin contact, remove epoxy immediately with a dry cloth or paper towel. Wash area of contact thoroughly with soap and water. Solvents should not be used because they carry the irritant into the skin. Wash clothing before re-use. Cured epoxy resins are innocuous.

CLEAN UP

Ventilate area. Confine spill. Collect with absorbent material, flush area with water. Dispose of in accordance with current applicable local, state and federal regulations. Uncured material can be removed with Citrus Cleaner or other approved solvent. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.
