Overview
The RDS 85G #3/8 "Gapped Applicator rod is a Spreader tool designed for high viscosity fluids, made of stainless steel, 9.52mm diameter, 400mm total length, 300mm application width, wet film thickness 194.3μm.
Features
1. Adopt gap wire-wound production process to reduce fluid blockage and scratches.
2. Wide and shallow cavities are formed by winding smaller wires to promote the flow of thick coatings.
3. Smaller wire design reduces coating flow interruption and enhances wetting effect.
4. Stainless Steel Ensures Durability and Stability.
Principle
Following the Mayer Rod film principle, thick coatings flow better by wrapping smaller wires at spacing to form cavities. Smaller wires create smaller interruptions in the coating flow, allowing the coatings to wetting more completely.
Applications
Spreaders for high viscosity fluids, laboratory coating prepatives, industrial film applications
Steps
1. Prepare high viscosity fluid samples.
2. Applicator rod is placed on the substrate surface.
3. Spreader Applicator rod evenly.
4. Check Coating thickness and uniformity.
Notice
• Applicator rod clean and free of clogging before use.
• Only suitable for high viscosity fluids, avoid using low viscosity materials.
• Maintain uniform force during operation to prevent uneven coating.
• Regularly check the condition of the wire, and replace it in time if there is any abrasion.
