Description
Designed for fast and easy installation, Abrasion Resistant Coating™ (ARC™) consists of a tough fiberglass fabric and a unique abrasion resistant epoxy coating. ARC bonds to a wide variety of materials including metals, composites and concrete. It’s a cost effective way to protect vessels, structures piping and other assets from corrosion, sand erosion and UV exposure. ARC conforms easily to any contour and can be used to protect reducers, tees, elbows and other complex shapes. The system, which is especially effective at soil-to-air interfaces (transition zones), ships in pre-measured kits, containing everything you’ll need for installation.
