    Sigmatherm 540 is a one-component heat resistant moisture curing silicone coating for application on steel surfaces. It is heat resistant up to 540°C on grit blasted steel and 400°C on rusted steel cleaned with power tools. No heat cure is needed between coats. It provides excellent resistance to weathering and is suitable for maintenance of hot surfaces where blasting is impractical. The product is available in an aluminium color with an eggshell gloss and can be applied by air spray, brush, or roller.

    Revision of August 2003

    DESCRIPTION one component heat resistant moisture curing silicone aluminium

    PRINCIPAL CHARACTERISTICS – heat resistant up to 540°C on steel, grit blasted to ISO-Sa2½


    – heat resistant up to 400°C on rusted steel, power tool cleaned to ISO-St3
    – no heat cure necessary between coats
    – ideal for maintenance of hot surfaces where blasting is impractical
    – excellent resistance against weathering
    – also suitable on top of zinc silicate primer

    COLOURS AND GLOSS aluminium - eggshell

    BASIC DATA AT 20°C (1 g/cm³ = 8.25 lb/US gal; 1 m²/l = 40.7 ft²/US gal)
    Mass density 1.1 g/cm³
    Volume solids 45 ± 2%
    VOC (supplied) max. 427 g/kg (Directive 1999/13/EC, SED)
    max. 478 g/l (approx. 4.0 lb/gal)
    Recommended dry film thickness 25 µm
    Theoretical spreading rate 18 m²/l for 25 µm
    Touch dry after 45 min.
    Overcoating interval min. 16 hours
    Shelf life (cool and dry place) at least 6 months
    Flash point 28°C

    RECOMMENDED – steel; blast cleaned to ISO-Sa2½


    SUBSTRATE CONDITIONS – steel; pretreated according to ISO-St3
    AND TEMPERATURES – suitable zinc silicate primer (e.g. SigmaZinc 158); dry and free from any
    contamination and zinc salts
    – substrate temperature should be at least 3°C above dew point

    INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE – power agitate to uniform consistency

    AIR SPRAY
    Recommended thinner no thinner should be added
    Nozzle orifice 1.5 - 2 mm
    Nozzle pressure 0.3 - 0.4 MPa (= approx. 3 - 4 bar; 43 - 57 p.s.i.)

    BRUSH/ROLLER for roller application the best results will be obtained by using fine foam type
    rollers

    CLEANING SOLVENT Thinner 21-06

    SAFETY PRECAUTIONS for paint and recommended thinners see safety sheets 1430, 1431 and relevant
    material safety data sheets
    this is a solvent borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of
    spray mist or vapour as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin
    or eyes
