FX-592
Loop Sealant

DESCRIPTION:

FX-592 Loop Sealant is a 100% solids medium viscosity epoxy resin designed for filling saw cut loop detector joints. FX-592 has an easy mix ratio of 1 Part "A" to 1 Part "B" by volume. FX-592 is formulated for a convenient system that does not require filler and will hold grade when placed in saw cut joints.

ADVANTAGES:

Fast curing time facilitates easy use of FX-592. FX-592 seals can be opened to traffic in two (2) hours at 70°F. FX-592 Loop Sealant bonds to both concrete and asphalt, and has flexibility to expand and contract with temperature changes.
