We created our #590-A Vacuum Infusion Trial Kit as a means of familiarizing someone with the materials that are unique to vacuum infusion. We strongly suggest significant experience with both vacuum bagging and room temperature molding before tackling resin infusion. This kit contains enough material to build 3 infusion trial projects up to 24" x 13" each. After completing these 3 "practice" laminates you will be familiar with EnkaFusion Nylon Matting, Lantor Soric, EnkaFusion Filter Jacket and Divinymat Sandwich Core. You will be able to judge the differences in resin travel and conformability as suits your future infusion applications. Additionally, you will be able to install your vacuum and resin lines and get some experience controlling your resin bucket and resin flow.

In order to use the kit, you will need your own vacuum pump, bagging materials and vacuum tubing to attach to the bag. Also, you will need to supply your own resin and reinforcement. Last, you will need a mold that will require a laminate no larger than 24" x 13" that also has a relatively large flange.

This kit will supply everything you need for:

• One laminate using EnkaFusion Nylon Matting as a Flow Media
• One laminate using Lantor Soric® as a Flow Media
• One laminate using Divinymat® Sandwich Core as a Flow Media

Includes:

• #505-A Resin Bucket 1 Gallon (x3)
• #512-B Resin Line Holder (x3)
• #893 Vacuum Tubing 5'pieces (x3)
• #1601 Zip Strips (x6)
• #1400 Filter Jacket 5" (x3)
• #582 Peel Ply 5'x5" pieces (x3)
• #1024 DIVINYMAT® 24"x16"
• #1401 Nylon Matting 24"x13"
• #1605-A Flow Regulator (x2)
• #1606-A Spring Clamp
• #906-A T-Fittings (x6)
• #1400 Filter Jacket 18" (x3)
• #1403 Spiral Tubing 5' pieces (x3)
• #582 Peel Ply 20"x5" pieces (x3)
• #1409 Lantor Soric® 24"x16.37"
• Instruction Sheet

If you can vacuum bag, you can infuse resin. The objective of this kit is to help you make informed decisions about choosing your flow media, placing and using spiral tubing and designing successful experiments for your own projects in the future. After completing these trial projects, you will be confident in planning your future flow media and resin line set up. You will be familiar with all of the terms used in this brochure and hopefully, will be able to reduce the learning curve and costs associated with the trial and error of successful vacuum infusion!
