Rhoseal (L589D)

Application

Rhoseal (L589D) is supplied as a dry powder which when mixed with a solution of Prosol (M061) liquid rapidly sets as a dense, hard mass. It has been specifically developed for the repair of cracks in shell moulds used in the 'lost wax' investment casting industry. The low levels of a wide range of trace elements makes it have particular benefits in the casting of metals where such contaminants must be under strict control.

Classification

Rhoseal has an operating temperature of 1600°C.

Mixing Instructions

100 grammes of Rhoseal requires approximately 10 - 12ml of liquid. Water may be used but for greater strength, a 60% solution of Prosol (M061) is recommended.
