CONDURON G55HK Instructions For Use:
CONDURON G55HK is extremely effective as a stop off paint for all forms of gas carburizing. It is particularly suitable for deep case carburizing up to depths of 4 mm. Max. (160”).
Because the residues of CONDURON G55HK are not soluble in water, alkaline solution or solvents, they must be removed after heat treatment by shot-blasting or steel brushing.
CONDURON G55HK is free of any solvents, which is important with respect of health and safety regulations.
Special Notes:
Two coats of Conduron G55HK are not only recommended but also necessary for optimum protection.
Thorough drying of the coatings prior to heating is essential because cracking of the coating may occur when the work pieces are put into the furnace.
During use, with the can open, Conduron G55HK will have a tendency to thicken due to evaporation of the liquid vehicle in the paint. In that case adding small quantities of "Special Thinner for Conduron G55HK" can restore the normal brushable consistency. Avoid over thinning; it would impair the effectiveness of the paste.
Removal of Residues:
After heat treatment the residues of Conduron G55HK must be removed by blasting since they are not soluble in water or solvents.
Cleaning of brushes and other equipment:
Tins should be closed and brushes should be cleaned with water immediately after use. If painting has to be interrupted for some time brushes should be set in water to prevent thickening of the bristles.
Storage:
Cans of CONDURON G55HK should be stored in a dry cool place. Please prevent from freezing.
