PPG Amerlock 2/400 – Black 2-Component Epoxy Kit

High-Build Industrial Epoxy Coating | Direct-to-Rust | NSF 61 Potable Water Approved

PPG Amerlock 2/400 is a high-solids, high-build epoxy protective coating that has set the standard for industrial, marine, and offshore corrosion protection worldwide. This complete 2-component epoxy kit (2 gallons) delivers fast dry times, low-temperature cure capability, superior chemical resistance, and the ability to apply directly over tightly adhering rust and old paint — without blast cleaning.

Key Performance Features

• Fast dry time — dry to touch in as few as 2 hours at 70°F (21°C); recoat in 3 hours
• Low-temperature cure — cures down to 0°F (-18°C) for year-round application in cold climates
• Direct-to-rust application — applies over tightly adhering rust and intact old paint without blast cleaning
• Minimal surface preparation — proprietary penetrants and surface tension-control agents create a tight bond even on difficult surfaces
• Least odour in class — low-solvent formula minimizes odour during application
• High-solids, high-build — thick film build in fewer coats for maximum protection efficiency
• Superior chemical resistance — resists weather, moisture, sunlight, and chemical fumes
• Direct-to-metal — excellent adhesion on new, unpainted metal surfaces

Compliance & Certifications

• ANSI/NSF 61 approved — certified for immersion in potable water tanks, pipes, valves, and fittings
• USDA incidental food contact compliant — suitable for food processing and agricultural environments
• FDA direct food contact — meets FDA requirements for direct food contact applications
• VOC compliant — meets existing VOC regulations

Typical Applications

• Potable water tanks, pipes, valves, and fittings
• Industrial and marine steel structures
• Offshore and coastal environments
• Food processing facilities and agricultural equipment
• Direct-to-metal coating on new unpainted surfaces
• Overcoating tightly adhering rust and old paint

Performance 

• No blast cleaning required — apply over rust and old paint, dramatically reducing surface prep cost and time
• Fast recoat — 3-hour recoat window keeps multi-coat systems moving efficiently
• Cold weather capable — cure down to 0°F extends the application season year-round
• Multi-environment certified — NSF 61, USDA, and FDA compliance opens up water, food, and industrial project opportunities in one product
• Compatible with PPG system products — pairs with AMERCOAT® 450 series and PSX® products for complete asset protection systems
