Belzona Facts
Application has been in service 24 hours a day for three years. Belzona® 1391 was chosen due to the temperature which could from time to time, go higher. Other steam jet ejectors have been repaired at this facility with Belzona® 4301 (Magma CR1 Hi-Build) with the same excellent results. The replacement - ordered some three years ago - remains in stock.
