Why would Choosing KANSAI HELIOS Group HELIOPUR 41-04 MULTI-SURFACE coating for the heavy-duty vehicle segment would make sense? Here’s 10 reasons why: 1. Durability: High mechanical resistance ensures protection against abrasions and impacts common in heavy machinery operations. Chemical resistance safeguards against exposure to oils, fuels, and cleaning agents used around A.C.E vehicles. 2. Weather and UV Resistance: Excellent for long-term exposure to harsh outdoor environments, preventing degradation from sunlight and moisture. 3. Corrosion Protection: Provides robust protection against rust on metal surfaces, especially when exposed to rural, urban, or mild industrial atmospheres. 4. One-Coat System: Reduces application time and labour cost while delivering excellent coverage and performance. 5. Versatility: Suitable for multiple surfaces including metal, plastic, and composites, ideal for diggers that may have mixed-material assemblies. 6. VOC Compliance: Low organic solvent content aligns with environmental regulations and sustainability goals. 7. Customisable Finish: Available in a wide range of colours and gloss levels (high gloss to deep matt) to meet branding or functional needs. 8. High Heat Resistance: Withstands temperatures up to 140°C short-term, suitable for parts of machinery exposed to high heat. 9. Easy Application: Compatible with airless and air spraying techniques, allowing for flexible and efficient application processes. 10. Storage Life: Long shelf life of 24 months (component A) ensures less waste and better inventory management. This coating is ideal for A.C.E vehicles operating in challenging environments where durability, corrosion protection, and a professional finish are critical. Its ease of application and multi-surface compatibility make it a strong candidate for heavy-duty vehicle use.
