This kit contains 4 fl. oz. G/flex 650 resin, 4 fl. oz. G/flex 650 hardener (8 fl. oz. mixed epoxy), 2 reusable mixing stick/applicators, 2 12-cc syringes, 4 grams Adhesive Filler, 4 mixing cups, 1 pair disposable neoprene gloves, 4 alcohol cleaning pads and complete handling and repair instructions.
With a modulus of elasticity of 150,000 PSI, it is a bit more flexible than standard epoxies and polyester, but much stiffer than adhesive sealants.
This gives G/flex the ability to make structural bonds that can absorb the stress of expansion, contraction, shock and vibration.
It is ideal for bonding dissimilar materials.
This epoxy is ideal for repairs to aluminum boats and polyethylene and ABS canoes and kayaks. It can also be used to wet out and bond fiberglass tapes and fabrics.
It can be modified with West System fillers and additives, and used to wet-out fiberglass tapes and fabrics.
Mixed at a 1:1 ratio, G/flex gives you 45 minutes of working time at room temperature.
It reaches an initial cure in 7 to 10 hrs and full cure in 24 hrs.
