Dura-Plate SW-501 Series
An advanced solvent-free epoxy technology for extreme offshore service
Based on a solvent free epoxy technology platform with over 20 years of proven track record protecting offshore wind, inland waterways and sheet-piling assets, the Dura-Plate® SW-501 range of products has evolved to set standards in modern performance and emissions requirements.
The flagship Dura-Plate SW-501 is now joined by a glass-flake solution providing additional pre-qualification compliance for splash zone offshore service at higher film thicknesses. Dura-Plate SW-501 GF represents a performance enhancement utilising lamellar glass-flake technology, while still retaining the chemistry and applicator-friendly characteristics of Dura-Plate SW-501.
