Overview
US RDS No. 6 Mayer Rods Model 6 #1/4 is a molded Applicator rod designed for Spreader 13.7 micron wet film thickness. The coating applicator uses a formed production process, with a total length of 400mm, an application width of 300mm, a diameter of 6.35mm, and a grip width of 50 + 50mm. The material is stainless steel. RDS offers both wire-wound and molded Mayer Rods. The wet film thickness of the same type of coating rod preparation is the same, but the Coating Coat Weight may vary.
Features
1. Precise control of wet film thickness of 13.7 microns
2. Adopt formed production process to ensure uniform Spreader
3. Stainless steel, durable and easy to clean
4. Overall length 400mm, application width 300mm, suitable for standard Spreader requirements
5. Forming design with a fixed diameter of 6.35mm
6. Holding width 50 + 50mm, comfortable operation
Principle
RDS Mayer Rods are manufactured by a formed production process in which a uniform coating is applied to the surface of the substrate, and the specific structure of the bar controls the amount of coating transfer, resulting in an accurate 13.7 micron wet film thickness. The molded Mayer Rods utilize their fixed diameter and surface texture to ensure consistent coating distribution.
Applications
Coating Spreaders, laboratory testing, quality control, surface preparation
Steps
1. Spreader Substrate and Coatings
2. Ensure that the coating applicator is clean and free of residue
3. Coating evenly on the coating applicator
4. Spreader on substrate surface at steady speed
5. Clean coating applicator after Spreader
Notice
• Check the coating applicator for damage before use
• Maintain uniform speed during Spreader to avoid uneven thickness
• Spreader clean in time to prevent Coating curing
Store in a drying environment to avoid corrosion
• Only for Coating Compatible Spreaders
