GenX Transition: 857G-100


GenX: DuPont has committed to no longer make, buy or use perfluorooctanoic acid, (PFOA) by 2015, or earlier if possible. A new DuPont technology includes a processing aid that enables DuPont to make fluoropolymers without the use of PFOA. With this new technology, DuPont has commercialized products for Industrial Fluoropolymers.  

Intech will be converting customers to the use of fluoropolymers made with GenX technology as these products become available and as our stock of the current products are depleted.  We will make announcements as each one of our products transition to the new GenX product.  The codes for the products are also transitioning.  

Based on internal testing, DuPont expects that the new products can be used as replacements for the historical products with minimal processing adjustments. 

Please also note that sales of these products will now be priced and packaged in kilograms (kg) instead of liquid weights (gallons).  

Products being transitioned:        New Code:                                
858N-100                                        857G-100                                      

If you have any questions regarding how this will effect your application or business, please contact Chris Dohl (302-366-8530/chris@intechservices.com)

Quality Shop Series: Spray Guns


The spray gun is a key component to achieving an excellent finish, but choosing the right gun for the job is sometimes difficult. Recently, our sales team went through the Liquid Spray Finishing Workshop by ITW Industrial Finishing.  At Intech, we strive to stay educated on the latest equipment and technology in order to research and select products that are best for the job. Following our training, we updated the Spray Equipment offerings and resources on our website.  After evaluating all liquid spray gun options on the market, the CoaterONE team increased our offerings to include Devilbiss® Compact™ HVLP, Conventional Air Spray, and Trans-tech Spray guns. We feel any of these guns are a good choice for the application of DuPont™ Liquid Teflon® industrial coatings.

Your selection will be based on what is of highest priority to your shop and the specific job.  Some of the factors that your shop might consider in the selection process are:
·      EPA regulations/environmental concerns
·      Size and quantity of parts
·      Finish quality
·      Atomization of the coating
·      Transfer efficiency
·      Viscosity of the material
·      Production rate
·      Energy efficiency

When selecting a spray gun you must first select one of the gun platforms:
·      Air Spray (Conventional)
·      HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure)
·      Compliant (Trans-tech)

Then choose a feed system that is right for your job: 
·      Siphon feed
·      Gravity feed
·      Pressure feed
When spraying DuPont™ Teflon® industrial coatings with a gravity feed or pressure spray gun, it’s recommend to use a 1.4 mm fluid tip/needle but for the siphon feed gun, you’ll want to use a 1.8mm. If you need additional fluid tip/needles for other applications, we have all tip/needle sizes to fit our guns for sale on the website.

Cleaning your spray gun is an important step because not keeping your gun in good working order can stop or slow production.  One way to prevent problems with your gun is to have repair and cleaning kits for your guns on your shop floor.  For just over $50, you can have parts and cleaning supplies at your fingertips.  This could also prevent major maintenance bills or having to toss your gun all together.  We’ll have more Insiders to come on troubleshooting, repair, and cleaning of spray guns.

If you have any questions or need help selecting a spray gun that fits your specific job, we’ll be happy to help. I hope you’ll take a look at our new Spray Gun Section of our website and give us a call.
