Application Method

The screw conveyor was grit blasted to SA2 1/2 with a minimum surface profile of 3 mil (75 microns). The area to be coated was then cleaned and degreased using Belzona 9111. Belzona 1814 was applied to the entire area of the conveyor to provide long-term protection against heavy abrasion.
