System 2000 Epoxy Resin is a medium viscosity, light amber laminating resin that is designed for fabricating parts and other demanding structural applications. Use this system to maximize the physical properties of carbon fiber, Kevlar®, and glass laminates! Test results have proven superiority over other room temperature epoxies. Its low viscosity and great handling characteristics make it a favorite in the shop too!

Three high performance hardener systems are available for the System 2000 resin. 20 minute, 60 minute and 120 minute pot life versions are all options. This added variety allows the fabricator to select the system best suited to the size, complexity, or time-frame of the project. Simple parts which need to be demolded quickly should use the 20 minute hardener. Larger and more complex parts can use either of the other hardeners.

Vacuum Bagging applications would typically warrant the longest 2 hour working time. As with any epoxy system, adhere to the proper mix ratios and maintain an adequate curing temperature of at least 70 degrees F. The cure time will be cut in half for every 10 degrees F that the temperature is raised above 70 degrees F. Purchase a single cure, or buy resin in bulk and order a variety of hardeners to keep on hand for any project. 

Chopped strand mat contains a binder which prevents proper bonding with any epoxy resins. Use our polyester or vinyl ester resins with chopped strand mat.

First, select the amount of System 2000 Resin that you will need. Then select your needed curing agent or combination of curing agents. Remember, these are not exact kits, so be sure you have enough Hardener!  

Short 20 minute pot life is quite versatile. Use for repairs, simple fabrications, or those parts requiring a quick de-mold time.

Pot Life: 20 Minutes
Mix Ratio By Weight: 100:23
Mix Ratio By Volume: 4:1  

This medium pot life hardener is ideal for standard part fabrication. The one hour working time eases frantic lay-up schedules and improves quality of most parts. Post cured temperature exceeds 200 degrees F

Pot Life: 60 Minutes
Mix Ratio By Weight: 100:27
Mix Ratio By Volume: 3:1  

This long pot life hardener extends working time on large-scale and complex projects. Suitable for vacuum bagging and laminating in hot climates. The 24-36 hour de-mold time can be reduced by increasing the cure temperature. The post-cured service temperature exceeds 200 degrees F.

Pot Life: 120 Minutes
Mix Ratio By Weight: 100:27
Mix Ratio By Volume: 3:1 

A white, thickened epoxy material used to create the durable surface coat on room temperature epoxy molds. This surface coat can be brushed on as thick as 1/8" at a time without developing runs or sags. It is specially formulated to provide strong interlaminar bonds with the reinforcing materials, even if it is left unsupported overnight. #1099 resists chipping and cracking, and retains its high gloss.  

High strength structural adhesive used to bond and assemble sub-components to form rigid final structures. The high viscosity provides excellent gap filling characteristics that strengthen loose fitting joints and panels. #1101 forms tough durable bonds to composites, SMC, many metals, and even common construction materials. It is easy to use with its 1:1 mix ratio, and 6-8 hour cure time at 77 degrees F. 

Extremely lightweight epoxy filler used to smooth the surface of repaired parts, fill the weave on moldless or male molded parts, and shape fillets in corners and joints. This epoxy filler provides superior adhesion to most surfaces including SMC, and exhibits no shrinkage. It spreads smoothly with few sags, even upside down! Final contours are easily sanded with standard shop tools.
