Foster® Fire Resistive Anti-Abrasion Coating 30-16
1 of 34 products in this brandFoster® Fire Resistive Anti-Abrasion Coating 30-16 is a high-solids, water-based, fire-resistive bore coating designed for the inner surfaces of cellular glass, rigid polyurethane, urea-formaldehyde, or polyisocyanurate foam insulation. Its purpose is to minimize abrasion caused by vibration and temperature fluctuations in piping or vessels. This coating exhibits strong adhesive properties across a broad temperature range, making it suitable for extremely low-temperature and dual-temperature equipment.

Applications & Uses
- Cleaning Information
-
To clean up, use warm, soapy water if still wet. When dry, use mineral spirits (flammable) or chlorinated solvent (non-flammable).
- Preparation and Application Information
-
Material preparation
- stir well.
- Do not thin.
- Apply only to clean, dry, oil-free surfaces.
- Keep container closed when not in use to prevent surface skinning.
Application
- Apply at 100 – 150 sq. Ft./gal. (2.5 – 3.7 m2 /l) to clean, dry, inner surface or bore of cellular glass insulation.
- Allow to dry before installing insulation.
Brush
- Use clean paintbrushes (suitable for water-based paints).
- Apply in a single, heavy, full, brush coat at recommended coverage.
- Avoid crisscross brushing.
Spray
- 30-16 can be applied using a variety of spray equipment.
- For spray equipment information, please contact your spray equipment supplier.
- Average viscosity range: 20,000 – 30,000 cps.
- Before using for the first time, existing spray systems must be completely cleaned and free of the old coatings and solvents.
- Corrosion resistant pumps and fittings are suggested.
