Actual transfer rates are affected by coating rheology and other variables.
Actual coverage is also affected by the rheology of the coating and other factors.
Actual transfer rates can vary from one rod type (configuration) to another.
Actual coverage will vary with rod type (configuration).
Half wire sizes available from .0025" to .0165"
Wire gauges for half values include 0.0025'' to 0.165''.
Dry coat weight calculations assume a coating density of 1.0g/cm3
Dry film weight calculations assume a coating density of 1.0 g/cm3.
GSM = Grams per square Meter
GSM=gram/square meter
#/3000 = Lbs per 3000 square feet
#/3000=lbs/3000 square feet
