Peel Coat, Type II
All Type II
coatings are based on Cellulose Acetate Butyrate. They have many
applications: protective tool coatings, masking for electroplating,
and sealing the ends of electric cables. Type II coatings can be
used to protect cutting tools, saw blades, gages, end mills, gears,
reamers, router bits, and various other parts. Type II coatings
have more odor, the fastest setup time, and are more durable than
other types. They are easy to remove and have excellent pot life.
B-50
Excellent tool protective coating with fast setup time. Good tensile strength. Available in clear, red, blue, and green.
B-52
Similar to B-50 with low cost and very little odor. Best selling Type II coating. Has little oil exudation and is the most transparent of all types of coating. Unusually long pot life. Low operating temperature means very few fumes. Available in clear, red, blue, and green.
B-60
A clear, tough Type II coating. Excellent for maximum abrasion protection and long term storage on heavy parts. Available in oil-less grade for protecting earth cores and epoxy mold applications.
B-85
Very hard, tough rack coating. Semi-strippable. Available in clear and black.
B-90
Used in many plating stop off operations and for some paint bake applications. Not as tough as B-100.
B-149
Meets the requirements of Military Specification MIL-P-149D and is used for Government packaging. This is an all-weather coating that will protect to minus 65 degrees F. It is tough, transparent and oil exuding for corrosion protection.
Oil-free, Type II coating used as a stopoff in electroplating, for capping ends of tubing, and sealing ends of electric cables. Meets the requirements of MIL-P-23242B. Available in transparent clear and pink.
- Suitable for chromium, copper, cadium, nickel and all common plating solutions
- Easy to apply - dip the part and its ready to trim in seconds
- Excellent adhesion for distinct stop-off lines
- Nontoxic, safe to use
- Saves time and eliminates painting or taping
- Easily removed and can be remelted and reused
Mask Peel is a simple, economical and effective process for many stop-off plating jobs
1. The part shown required the small arm and holes to be plated without plating the remaining surfaces. After heating mask peel to a molten state, the part is dipped in the compound for 1 to 2 seconds, removed and allowed to harden. Mask Peel hardens in approximately 5 minutes. the speed of hardening can be increased by dipping in cold water.
2. Mask Peel is approximately one tenth of an inch thick. the holes and arm are now easily trimmed with a razor or knife. This operation saves many hours of taping or lacquer painting and drying time. The part is ready for plating.
3. After the plating operation, mask peel can be peeled off as you would a banana.
4. Now the part is ready for assembly. After rinsing in water, Mask Peel can be remelted and reused.
