USI 131 Tar Epoxy Coating

Description

USI 131 Tar Epoxy Coating is a two-component, 100 % solids epoxy system specifically engineered for coating and protecting petroleum-contaminated concrete and asphalt-based surfaces. Its coal-tar-modified formulation creates a dense, chemical-resistant barrier that seals and protects substrates exposed to oil, fuel, and industrial chemicals.

With excellent impact, abrasion, and chemical resistance, USI 131 Tar Epoxy Coating provides long-term protection for refineries, maintenance facilities, and other environments where ordinary coatings fail. It requires no primer or topcoat, cures quickly, and forms a durable black finish designed for performance rather than appearance—ideal for tough industrial applications.

Product Benefits

• Exceptional Adhesion on Contaminated Surfaces – Bonds to oil-soaked concrete and asphalt without delamination.

• High Strength & Durability – Compressive strength of 6,509 psi, flexural strength of 7,340 psi, and tensile strength of 5,100 psi ensure lasting protection.

• Superior Chemical Resistance – Withstands exposure to xylene, MEK, methanol, sulfuric acid, and sodium hydroxide.

• Abrasion & Impact Resistant – Excellent wear protection for high-traffic areas and equipment surfaces.

• Zero VOC, 100 % Solids Formula – Safe for use indoors and environmentally compliant.

• Easy Application – Apply by brush, roller, or serrated squeegee at 12 mils thickness; self-levels for a uniform finish.

• Fast Cure Time – Tack-free in 6–8 hours, light foot traffic in 14–16 hours, and full cure in 2–7 days.

• Low Maintenance – No primer or topcoat needed for most installations.

Typical Applications

USI 131 Tar Epoxy Coating is recommended for:

• Asphalt and Concrete Surfaces – Excellent for resurfacing asphalt-base substrates and petroleum-contaminated concrete.

• Fueling and Maintenance Facilities – Protects equipment pads, loading areas, and containment zones.

• Industrial Floors & Processing Areas – Resists chemical spills and mechanical wear.

• Refinery and Chemical Plants – Shields structures exposed to oil and corrosive materials.

• Utility and Wastewater Facilities – Ideal for protective lining of non-decorative infrastructure surfaces.
