Peka‑Pro LAT – Low Application Temperature FBE

Peka‑Pro LAT is designed for low‑temperature application environments where substrates cannot tolerate standard FBE curing temperatures (180–250°C) or where reduced energy usage is a priority. Its formulation enables effective curing at 150–180°C — and even lower in advanced systems — without compromising protective performance.

Key Advantages:

• Low curing temperature (150–180°C or less) for heat‑sensitive applications
• Excellent adhesion to steel substrates
• Corrosion resistance comparable to standard FBE
• High abrasion and chemical resistance
• Energy‑efficient solution for modern pipeline projects
• Suitable for field joints, small diameter pipes, and insulated pipelines

Typical Applications:

• Oil, gas, and water transmission pipelines
• Field joints and rehabilitation works
• Pipelines with insulation or coatings sensitive to high heat
• Energy‑saving industrial coating projects

Technical Highlights:

• Type: Low‑temperature fusion‑bonded epoxy powder coating
• Curing Temperature: 150–180°C (or lower for advanced grades)
• Performance: Comparable to standard FBE systems in corrosion, adhesion, and abrasion resistance
• Durability: Resists wear, impact, and chemical exposure during service life

Application Process:

1. Blast clean the steel substrate to Sa 2½ (ISO 11124‑3)
2. Preheat to 150–180°C
3. Apply electrostatically to achieve specified film thickness
4. Cure and cool

International Standards Compliance:

• Comparable to ISO 21809‑2 FBE performance
• Meets requirements for corrosion, cathodic disbondment, and adhesion in low‑heat processes

Best For:

• Projects where high‑temperature curing is impractical
• Pipelines with operational or environmental heat constraints
• Applications prioritizing energy efficiency without losing protective performance
