BASE 87559 with CURING AGENT 98550
HEMPADUR XP 87550 is an amine-adduct cured epoxy coating. It is hard, impact and
abrasion resistant with excellent temperature resistance and cathodic disbondment
resistance. The product can be applied by standard heavy duty airless spray
equipment.
As a self-primed, high build coating primarily for protection of exterior of steel pipes in
severely corrosive environment, including burried pipelines in wet grounds.
For new constructions as well as a field-applied renovation and repair coating.
Can be applied to lines while in service at temperatures up to 90C/194F.
Dry exposure only: Wet (as external coating on hot pipes only):
130C/266F 110C/230F
Subject to confirmation and for test purpose only.

HEMPADUR XP 87550

SURFACE Abrasive blasting to Sa 2, (ISO 8501-1:1988), with a surface profile equivalent to Rugotest No.
PREPARATION: 3 BN 10b, Keane-Tator Comparator 3.0 G/S or ISO Comparator, rough MEDIUM (G).
Remove any oil, grease and other contaminants by detergent and salts by high fresh water hosing
prior to abrasive blasting.

APPLICATION The surface must be completely dry and clean with a temperature above the dew point to avoid
CONDITIONS: condensation. The minimum steel temperature and the temperature of the paint itself should be
above 10C/50F. Paint temperature preferably 20-30C/68-86F. Maximum steel temperature
90C/194F. Relative Humidity max. 85%.
In confined spaces, provide adequate ventilation.

PRECEDING None.
COAT:

SUBSEQUENT None or according to specification.

COAT:

REMARKS:
Recoating: The indicated recoat intervals will normally only apply in connection with touch-up of too low dry
film thicknesses.
If the maximum recoat interval is exceeded, roughening of the surface is necessary to ensure
adhesion.

Holiday detection: Due to a high concentration of conductive barrier pigments in the product, highvoltage holiday
detection is not applicable.

Note: HEMPADUR XP 87550 is for professional use only.
