Pyroshield™ E 179

This is a two-component, solvent-free, amine-cured epoxy intumescent coating designed to provide passive fire protection for steel structures exposed to hydrocarbon pool fires. It can be applied up to 5 mm thickness without the need for additional reinforcing mesh and is typically used as a mid-coat in a complete system for atmospheric environments. Suitable for application over approved primers on carbon steel, hot-dip galvanized steel, and stainless steel, it meets ANSI/UL 1709 testing guidelines for fire protection ranging from 60 to 240 minutes.
