What they do
Epoxy resin, used in conjunction with its companion fillers,
fabrics and tools, is one of the most versatile materials available for boat repair and
construction. The key to the broad acceptance of epoxy-based materials, by professionals
and amateurs alike, is the fact that they can comprise a complete system. Whether you want
to repair gelcoat cracks or a delaminating deck, install a bulkhead or even cold-mold a
brand-new hull, you can create an epoxy mixture with the precise characteristics you need.
In addition to
their versatility, these materials are designed to be easy to work with in terms of mixing
the proper ratios of resin to hardeners,
fillers
and additives. The completeness of the offering is apparent when you
realize that we can supply everything from
mixing sticks and pots to
reinforcing fibers and cleanup products.
How they work
The heart of working with epoxy is the basic epoxy resin. This clear amber liquid
resin can be made to cure to a high-strength plastic solid at room temperatures by mixing
specific proportions of resin to the correct choice of hardener. By using a simple
“cookbook“ approach, you can tailor both the handling characteristics and the
physical properties of the cured resin to suit both your working conditions and the
specific coating.
West System epoxy is a high-quality, two-part epoxy that is easily modified for
a wide range of coating and adhesive applications. It is used for construction and repairs
requiring superior moisture resistance and high-strength. It bonds to fiberglass, wood,
metal, fabrics, and other composite materials, and is especially suited for marine
applications.
Good science is at the heart of WEST SYSTEM epoxy. Comprehensive testing is the
basis of that science and is essential for the development of improved epoxy formulations
and better construction and repair methods. When professionals need answers to tough
questions, they look to West for answers.

| 206 Slow Hardener
 | 655-206A - .44 Pint - $11.90
 | 206 Slow Hardener is a low-viscosity epoxy curing
agent for use when extended working and cure time is needed or to provide adequate working
time at higher temperatures. |
| When combined with 105 Resin in a five-part resin to
one-part hardener ratio, the cured resin/hardener mixture yields a rigid, high-strength,
moisture-resistant solid with excellent bonding and coating properties.
