Commonly used with RF 61
Many of our customers experience greater efficiencies when using RF 61 epoxy curing agent with RF 3000. RF 61 is a polyamide curing agent for use with various epoxy resins. This specific curing agent is designed to add toughness and flexibility to cured epoxy resins. It has very good adhesive strength characteristics and will bond with most substrates. Because RF 3000 is our lowest viscosity bisphenol A epoxy, high viscosity polyamide hardeners like RF 61 are a great fit.
