Belzona Facts
Belzona 1341 is a two component, high performance coating system for improving the efficiency of fluid handling systems and protection of metals from the effects of erosion-corrosion. It is also suitable for contact with potable water. It is listed by WRAS. Belzona 2141 is an elastomeric system designed for coating applications subject to the extremely high localized pressures created by cavitation and erosion. This versatile liquid applied material retains adhesion under long term immersion and dissipates energy created under medium to high intensity cavitation conditions.
