BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904

BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904 is a dispersion of PTFE and graphite in a thermosetting binder designed to be applied by spray, brush, or dip. BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904 produces a low friction coating with excellent resistance to corrosion and solvents. The wide range of cure temperatures 149 to 260°C allows BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904 to be used on wood, rubber and many plastics and on engineering metals. BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904 is a one-package product and is not affected by low temperature storage conditions.

  • Usage Information:
    • Surface Preparation
    • For maximum resistance wear, corrosion and abrasion, the following procedures are recommended:
      • Steel: Degrease, grit blast, and/or chemically pre-treat with Bonderite M-ZN 20 (know as Granodine 20), Bonderite M-MN 2 (known as Lubrite 2), or equivalent.
      • Stainless Steel: Degrease grit blast
      • Aluminum: Degrease, pre-treat with Bonderite M-CR 1200S (known as Alodine 1200S) or equivalent, anodize.
    • Mixing
      • BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904 can be spray applied undiluted. However to obtain maximum smoothness, dilute the product with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) or Bonderite L-FG SB-2 Acheson (known as Acheson SB-2 solvent) in the ratio of three parts product (by weight) to one part solvent. If parts are to be dipped, a 3:2 (product:solvent) weight ratio is recommended. If dip-spin equipment is used, adjust the product to 20- 30 seconds on a #2 Zahn cup (neat product may already be in this range).
    • Application
      • Use an external-atomizing spray gun with 35-50 psi air pressure and adjust the gun to give a well-atomized spray. For optimum performance, the final coating thickness should be 0.0003-0.0010 inches (0.008 to 0.025 millimeters). When properly applied, the coating will be even and free of runs, blisters, or “fish eyes.” Some electrostatic spray systems may be used to apply BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904.
      • BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904 can also be applied by dipping. The product should be diluted 3:2 (product:solvent) by weight with MEK. The average dip coating will produce a heavier coat, but a pre-cure of ten minutes at 121 to 135°C or one minute at 177°C is required between dips. Dip-spin will require two or three coats. A partial cure of one minute at 177°C is required between coats.
    • Curing
      • For optimum results, BONDERITE® S-FN GP 1904should be cured at 149°C for 60 minutes, 177°C for 10 minutes, or 204°C for 8 minutes (substrate temperatures).
