PRO-VAC 150-LG-75 VACUUM BAGGING FILM Technical data: For low temperature cure up to 120°C Packaging and storage • A tough, puncture resistant co-extrusion of polyolefin and nylon based resins which are designed for use in the production of polyester/ vinylester resin infused components for the wind energy, marine and general composite industries. • Limited sensitivity to low humidity levels which are often problematic to predominantly nylon based films as the lack of moisture can reduce flexibility. This ensures consistent year long performance in all workshop environments. • It is available in widths of up to 10 meters without seams. For larger more complex mouldings, such as boat decks, our 80 micron version is recommended due to its added resistance to handling stresses and improved burst resistance. Standard packaging is a strong bubble plastic; the rolls can be packaged in cardboard tubes if requested by customer.

• Make sure the surfaces which are to be bonded are clean and dry, shake the can well and spray from a distance of 25 cm, hold the can vertically and spray an even layer of adhesive; it must not appear as being wet if it does then move further away from the surface.
• When spraying the adhesive keep a fluid movement with the hand to avoid spraying too much adhesive in one place
• After each application purge the nozzle by spraying the can upside down • To achieving the optimum bond both surfaces must be sprayed with adhesive, wait around
1 minute to allow the solvent to evaporate then press the surfaces together

PRO-VAC HFVL
Process benefits
High flow vacuum line
Specification
Technical details and training
• PRO-VAC HFVL is acost effectivehigh quality micro porous vacuum line which allows air to flow consistently through itself as well as acting as a resin barrier throughout the vacuum infusion process.
• PRO-VAC HFVL consists of a combination of products that have been brought together to make a user friendly and easy hand able robust product.
• Adhesive was chosen as the sealing agent between the layers because during our extensive testing of the PRO-VAC HFVL we found that this method of sealing (instead of welding) produced a much higher quality and durable seal.
• Allows for less complex infusion strategies therefore can reducelabour time• Excellent vacuum compaction throughout the process resulting in a better quality
laminate • Small footprint on the laminate surface• Releases easily from all know resin systems • Can be used as a sacrificial vacuum line to initiate vacuum once the laminate is wet out • Can be used as a single point vacuum outlet to combat troublesome dry areas in already
established process• Does not contain resin after cure therefore no issues with marking due to exotherm• Reduced amount of resin required for the process because no resin is wasted in the
vacuum lines and catch pots
Widths: 150mm and 300mm wide *Special widths may be ordered contact our technical staff for details Length: 100m long rolls
