Very high performance epoxy laminating and casting resin designed for use in high temperature environments up to 180°C (356°F). This resins HDT (Heat Distortion Temperature) of 180°C means that up to this temperature the epoxy will not shrink, crack or distort..
As well as its high HDT this epoxy system also has good clarity, a low viscosity and exceptional wetting characteristics when used with carbon fibre or aramid fibre (i.e. Kevlar). When cured the resin has excellent mechanical properties.
Starter Kit Compatibility
This is the resin used in the high-temperature version of our carbon fibre laminating starter kit.
Pack Sizes
Our High Temperature Epoxy Laminating Resin is available in 3 different pack sizes: 500g, 1kg and 5kg. Please choose the size you want from the drop-down above.
The larger the pack the more you save.
