Material Description
CAFCO® PSK 101 is a single pack, multi purpose synthetic
latex, water based emulsion for use as a sealer or keycoat as a component of the Cafco
FENDOLITE® MII integrated fire protective coating system.
CAFCO® PSK 101 is suitable for on site or off site
application to construction elements such as steel or concrete sections, and metal decks.
Onshore oil and gas, petrochemical and power industries will benefit from the use of
CAFCO® PSK 101.

Typical Mechanical Properties
| Properties and
performance |
|
|
Colour and finish |
Dark green (nearest to BS4800: 1981, colour code 10 B 25). May be applied by spray, roller or brush. |
|
Typical thickness |
55-82 microns dry film thickness (DFT) from 100-150 microns wet film thickness (WFT).
Do not apply less
than 100 microns (WFT).
|
|
Practical coverage |
Dependent on surface texture, substrate porosity, application method and technique. |
|
Theoretical coverage |
8m²/litre at 125 microns WFT |
|
Number of coats |
One or more as required dependent on application technique. Additional coats may be applied once the previous
coat is touch dry. |
|
Over coating interval |
Touch dry ½ to 1 hour at 20ºC and RH 50% |
|
Maximum over coating time |
2 months with either additional coats of CAFCO® PSK 101 or Cafco FENDOLITE® MII |
|
Cure |
By air drying |
|
Drying time |
2 to 6 hours at 20ºC and RH 50%. The drying time will vary with ambient conditions, but high
humidity, low
temperature and low air change can extend cure time significantly. |
|
Solids by weight |
55% |
|
Density |
1.25kg/litre |
Please consult nearest Promat office for specific details relevant to local conditions.
|
|
| Typical substrates |
Unprimed and primed steel |
| Substrate preparation |
The substrate shall be clean, dry and free from dust, loose mill scale, loose rust, oil and any other condition
preventing good adhesion. |
|
|
| Initial steps |
Stir contents before use. Do not thin. |
|
Methods |
CAFCO® PSK 101 may be applied with an industrial
type airless or air-assisted spray, or lambs wool roller. It may also be applied with a brush in small (maximum 1m²)
areas only. |
|
Limitations |
CAFCO® PSK 101 may be applied when the substrate
and air temperatures are at least 2ºC and rising. Maximum air and substrate temperature is 45ºC.
Substrate temperature should be at least 2ºC above dew point temperature.
Protect from rain, hail etc. until dry.

|
Packaging |
20 litre plastic drums. |
|
Storage |
Protect from frost, excessive heat (above 45ºC) and strong radiant sunlight. |
|
Shelf life |
Minimum 6 months. |
|
Environmental |
Do not discharge into drains, watercourses or soil. |
