Magnobond 6030-1, Parts A & B
DESCRIPTION
Magnolia 6030-1 is a two part epoxy mass casting resin
designed for replacing lead in drop hammer punches and for
making draw and stretch form dies.
SPECIAL FEATURES
1. Large tools are quickly and easily produced by simply
framing a master and casting 6030 in place. The epoxy
cures at room temperature without shrinkage to a net
size in 4-5 days.
2. Two different mix ratios can be used depending on the
application. For tough impact resistant hammers use 100
parts by weight of "A" to 175 parts by weight of "B".
For draw and stretch dies use 100:150 parts by weight.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1. Prepare model and mold frame with a thin but uniform
coat of release agent. Be sure there are no leaks.
The exact part thickness should be waxed in place.
2. Each component must be thoroughly and completely
stirred prior to use to redisburse the aluminum
grain. This must be done prior to each use to
maintain the correct balance of all chemicals.
3. Mix components A and B thoroughly in their proper
ratio. This step requires particular attention as
both components are gray in color so there is no
visual mix indicator. Complete mixing is essential
for a good tool.
4. Pour the mixed epoxy slowly into the mold frame and
allow to cure 3 days at room temperature prior to
pulling.
5. If necessary, the back of the tool should be
machined level prior to use.
