HELIOCOAT®
thermoset powder coatings
OVERVIEW
The heat-resistant thermoset powder solution.
Some products withstand a tremendous amount of heat, day in and day out.
In order to keep that product functional, the coating must be able to withstand elevated temperatures without losing gloss, discoloring, cracking, or losing adhesion.
HELIOCOAT® is a patented thermoset powder coating solution developed to protect surfaces exposed to extremely high temperatures, up to 1400°F (760°C).
HELIOCOAT® is specially formulated to protect surfaces at extremely high temperatures.
The coating is formulated for excellent adherence that will not crack or delaminate and will maintain color and gloss.
MAIN FEATURES
- Highest heat resistance of any thermoset powder coating.
- Scratch, chip, and corrosion resistance.
- Excellent adhesion and long-term color retention.
- Available in four categories based on heat resistance level.
- Flexible application for indoor or outdoor use.
