Trowellable Wear Resistant Coating

Your Versatile Wear Solution

Wear-Patch is a wear, abrasion and corrosion resistant coating consisting of a mixture of 70% ceramic beads suspended in epoxy resin.

Wear-Patch provides excellent protection against sliding abrasion and moderate impact when used in bulk handling operations.

Wear- Patch can be applied by trowel or spatula and cures under normal conditions in about 8 hours.
