West System Epoxy Resin A Packs (1.2KG)
West System Epoxy Resin is the base material on which all West System Epoxy Resin epoxy compounds are built. The resin is a clear, pale yellow, low-viscosity liquid epoxy resin. Formulated for use with West System hardeners, it can be cured in a wide temperature range to form a high-strength solid with excellent moisture resistance. 206 Slow Hardener is a low-viscosity epoxy curing agent for use when extended working and cure time is needed or to provide adequate working time at higher temperatures. When combined with 105 Resin in a five-part resin to one-part hardener ratio, the cured resin/hardener mixture yields a rigid, high-strength, moisture-resistant solid with excellent bonding and coating properties. Not intended for clear coating.
The West System Epoxy Resin, 105 resin mixed with 206 slow hardener can be used for extended assembly times when working in ideal conditions or the ambient temperature is higher than normal. West System 105-206 cured resin/hardener mixture yields a high-strength, rigid solid which has excellent cohesive properties and provides an outstanding moisture vapour barrier with excellent bonding & coating properties.
The West System A Pack contains 1kg of 105 Resin and 200g of 206 Slow Hardener for larger projects. With the Addition of West Fillers and Additives this gives a versatile product for Filliting, Fairing, Boat Building and Repair.
105 Resin
105 Resin is the base material of the WEST SYSTEM product range. The resin is a clear, light amber, low viscosity epoxy resin. WEST SYSTEM 105 Resin is designed specifically for use with WEST SYSTEM hardeners. WEST SYSTEM fillers or additives may be added to the epoxy resin and hardener mix to modify the epoxy to suit a range of applications.
206 Slow Hardener
206 Slow Hardener is a low-viscosity epoxy curing agent for use when extended working time or a longer cure time is needed. It also provides adequate working time at higher shop temperatures.
When combined with 105 Resin in a five-part epoxy resin to one-part hardener ratio, the cured resin/206 Slow Hardener mixture yields a rigid, high-strength, moisture-resistant solid with excellent bonding and barrier coating properties. 206 Slow Hardener is not intended for clear coating.

Features
Benefits
formulated without volatile solvents and does not shrink after curing. It has a relatively high flash point and no strong solvent odor, making it safer to work with than polyester or vinylester resins. Resin viscosity is approximately 1000 centipoise (cp) at 72 F (22C) Designed specifically to wet out and bond with wood fiber, fiberglass, reinforcing fabrics and a variety of metals when mixed at the proper ratio with a West System hardener. An excellent adhesive, 105 mixtures will bridge gaps and fill voids when modified with West System fillers and can be sanded and shaped when cured. With roller applications, it has excellent thin-film characteristics to flow out and self-level without “fisheyeing.” 105 Resin/206 Hardener mixtures cure clear so you can achieve a natural finish when coating with varnish.
