IP6 / IP37 / IP-STAT6 two-component polyurethane enamels for light alloys (BS2X34, MSRR 1006, RRMS 40030), including conductive ones

Country: United Kingdom · Model: IP6, IP37, IP-STAT6

Two-component air-drying polyurethane finish enamels for light alloys in aircraft construction, with a VOC content below 420 g/l. The range includes the IP6, the conductive black IP-STAT6-BLACK, and the urethane IP37 and IP-FR-37. The enamel is flexible, chemically resistant and keeps its color and gloss.

IP6 Range: 2K air-drying polyurethane, VOC < 420 g/l; BS2X34 Type A and B, MSRR 1006, RRMS 40030, HAL (ALH), Meggitt PR0599, HCP 355; replaces DTD 5580; per MIL-PRF-85285 Class H
IP6 properties: pot life 4 h; cupping 6 mm without cracks; impact 3.8 mm; adhesion ≤ class 1; water 168 h; Skydrol 1000 h at 70 °C; UV-B 500 h; 100 h at 180 °C
Primers: BSX33 chromate, chromate-free 2K epoxy IP3, BSX32 wash primer
IP-STAT6-BLACK: conductive 2K PU enamel; Dowty PS 5632 (P999539); surface conductivity per PS5006; BS2X34 A/B

Description

The IP6 is applied over the chromate primer BSX33 or the chromate-free epoxy IP3, and if necessary over the BSX32 wash primer. Approvals cover BS2X34 Type A and Type B, MSRR 1006 and RRMS 40030, PR0599 and HCP 355, the IP6 replaces DTD 5580 and meets the MIL-PRF-85285 Class H requirements. Pot life is 4 hours. In tests the enamel does not crack at 6 mm cupping and 3.8 mm impact, cross-hatch adhesion with a 1 mm cut is no worse than class 1, and there is no penetration under a load of 1500 g. Water 168 hours, Skydrol 1000 hours at 70 °C, UV-B 500 hours, heating 100 hours at 180 °C. The hardener is IP6-CAT, the thinners are IP985-Reducer, 665-550-025 or IP-MEG-REDUCER. The conductive black IP-STAT6-BLACK is listed in Dowty PS 5632 (code P999539), has surface conductivity per PS5006 and meets BS2X34 A and B. The IP37 and IP-FR-37 are two-component urethane paints and varnishes with reduced VOC for general tasks.

How to choose

For airframe and landing gear parts, brake systems and engine units take the IP6. When static charge dissipation is needed, switch to the IP-STAT6-BLACK. The IP37 and IP-FR-37 are chosen for general tasks where weather, chemical and heat resistance matter. Compatibility is determined by the primer, the chromate BSX33 or the chromate-free epoxy IP3.
