SC HR 1200 WITH BINDER

Product Overview

The SC HEAT RESISTANT 1200 SOLVENT BASE coating is based on silicone composite resin, which is chemically inert and non-reactive with metal parts. Its specialized formulation provides a smooth, semi-glossy or matte finish, withstanding continuous thermal cycling and mechanical stress.

This coating is solvent-based and easy to apply — it can be brushed or sprayed directly onto the substrate without the need for a primer. It provides excellent adhesion, flexibility, and scratch hardness, making it a reliable solution for high-temperature protection across industrial sectors.

Key Features and Advantages

• Extreme Heat Resistance:
  Withstands temperatures up to 1200°C, ensuring superior protection for furnace parts, pipelines, and other heat-exposed surfaces.

• Superior Corrosion Protection:
  Forms a dense, protective film that prevents oxidation and rust formation, even under condensation conditions.

• Easy Application:
  Can be applied using a brush or spray without primer, and dries quickly at room temperature.

• Excellent Adhesion and Flexibility:
  Provides strong bonding with metal surfaces and maintains film integrity under expansion or thermal shock.

• Smooth Finish:
  Delivers a uniform, semi-glossy or matte surface appearance, enhancing both performance and aesthetics.

• Chemical Resistance:
  Resistant to petroleum hydrocarbons, solvents, and other industrial chemicals, ensuring film stability.

• Scratch and Pressure Resistant:
  The cured film maintains hardness, showing no bare metal even under scratch or pressure tests.

• Quick Curing:
  Achieves initial air drying in 1 hour and complete curing with 1-hour heating at 250°C.

Method of Application

1. Surface Preparation:

   • Clean the surface thoroughly to remove old coatings, rust, or contaminants.

   • Use SC PAINT STRIPPER to remove any previous coatings.

   • Apply the stripper and let it act until the old paint starts lifting.

   • Scrape lightly using emery paper and clean the surface with thinner before applying SC HEAT RESISTANT 1200.

2. Application Process:

   • Mix the coating thoroughly before use.

   • Thin with SC Thinner for Heat Resistant Paints if required.

   • Apply one uniform coat using a brush or spray gun.

   • Allow the surface to air dry for 1 hour.

3. Curing Procedure:

   • After air drying, heat the coated surface to 250°C for 1 hour to achieve optimal film curing.

   • If heating is not possible, allow the surface to dry naturally in warm conditions for 3–4 days, depending on ambient heat.

4. Second Coat (Optional):

   • Apply the second coat only after the first coat is completely cured and cooled to room temperature.

   • Repeat the curing process after the second coat for maximum performance.

5. Coverage:

   • Approx. 200 sq. ft. per litre per coat, depending on surface porosity and texture.

Packaging and Storage

• Packaging: Available in custom-sized sealed metal containers suitable for industrial use.

• Storage Conditions:

  • Store in a dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature.

  • Keep away from direct sunlight, open flames, and moisture.

  • Shelf life: 1 year when stored in sealed condition.

Safety and Handling

• Use personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and masks during application.
• Ensure proper ventilation in enclosed areas.
• Avoid direct contact with eyes and skin.
• Keep away from open flames and sparks due to the solvent base.
• Dispose of used containers and materials as per local environmental regulations.

Performance Benefits

SC HEAT RESISTANT 1200 SOLVENT BASE ensures long-term protection, reduced maintenance, and improved operational safety in high-temperature environments. Its silicone composite chemistry forms a stable, non-reactive protective layer, preventing surface degradation, scaling, and rust.

The coating’s unique ability to cure at moderate temperatures while maintaining integrity at 1200°C makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial and manufacturing applications.

Typical Applications

• Furnace interiors and exteriors
• Chimney stacks and ducts
• Boilers and heaters
• Industrial ovens and flues
• Power plant equipment
• Automotive exhaust systems
• Metal pipelines carrying hot gases or fluids

Conclusion

SC HEAT RESISTANT 1200 SOLVENT BASE is a high-performance thermal protection solution that combines ease of application with unmatched resistance to heat, corrosion, and chemicals. It ensures the longevity and reliability of industrial equipment exposed to extreme conditions — making it a trusted choice for engineers and maintenance professionals seeking superior thermal protection coatings.
