The perfectly spherical shape of the ceramic micro-spheres allows them to pack tightly together thus forming a cured coating with unequalled abrasion resistance
EPOXY COATINGS WITH AMAZING ABRASION RESISTANCE
ARMOURGUARD epoxy-ceramic protective coating system is a recent development in high
performance coatings for marine and industrial steel work. There are six grades available,
all are based on unique surface coated ceramic micro-spheres which have high strength
and abrasion resistance, unlike other fillers used in coatings such as ground limestone
or chalk which have little strength.
When cured ARMOURGUARD contains the maximum possible volume of ceramic micro-spheres
with just sufficient epoxy to fill the gaps between the spheres when the coating
has cured.
It is well known that a very thin film adhesive joint is much stronger than a thicker
one. It is this phenomena which accounts for ARMOURGUARD's tremendous adhesion to
the substrate which is 3 to 4 times that of conventional two part epoxy coatings.
The increased adhesion results in ARMOURGUARD having exceptional corrosion protection
qualities because rust is less able to creep beneath the coating.
