 Description
Thurmalox 245 Primer is a high temperature, corrosion resistant primer formulated from silicone resins and zinc dust. Thurmalox 245 Primer provides outstanding corrosion protection for metal surfaces operating at temperatures from 500°F (260°C) to 1000°F (538°C), with peaks to 1200°F (649°C). Thurmalox 245 is the primer for both Thurmalox 230 Series and Thurmalox 280 Aluminum heat resistant topcoats. These primer/topcoat systems have excellent intercoat adhesion and are able to withstand severe thermal shock throughout the entire temperature range.
