Source: Nullifire SC802 Technical Data Sheet (Tremco CPG), tested to BS 476: Parts 20/21. Your catalog page also mentions a "limited 90-minute option" — this data sheet only confirms 60 minutes, so verify the 90-minute claim before publishing.

Substrate Preparation

  • Steel Preparation: Apply only onto a clean, undamaged, dry, primed steel surface free from contaminants.
  • Substrate Restrictions: Only primers listed in the product's ETA (European Technical Assessment) or on Nullifire's website are pre-approved.

Primer Systems

  • Nullifire's recommended primers are listed in the SC802 ETA and on Nullifire's website. Contact Nullifire technical services for compatibility testing on any primer not already listed.

Airless Spray Application Setup

  • Operating Pressure: 2500–3000 psi (175–210 kg/cm²)
  • Tip Size: 17 to 21 thou
  • Fan Angle: 20°–40°
  • Fluid Line: 10 mm (3/8") ID

Drying Schedule (at 20°C)

Dry Time @ 0.2mm WFT 2 Hours
Dry Time @ 0.5mm WFT 3 Hours
Dry Time @ 1.0mm WFT 4 Hours

Times shown are recoat intervals at 20°C and vary with temperature and humidity — confirm with Nullifire for your site conditions.

Third-Party Certifications & Compliance

  • Certifire CF5420 — third-party approval.
  • Tested to BS 476: Part 20/21 for internal structural steelwork.
  • Cellular beam assessment: YB5.

Carbothane 137HS coating product logo
Fire Resistance Rating N/A — Protective Topcoat
Recommended Environment C1–C3 (No Primer), C4–C5 (With Primer)
UV / Gloss Performance Outstanding UV & Gloss Retention
VOC Content 328 g/L (Part A, as supplied)
Volume Solids Not published in sources checked
Max Dry Film Thickness (DFT) Not published in sources checked
Application Method Not published in sources checked
Pack Size & Storage Not published in sources checked

Sources: Carboline regional product page (environment, UV/gloss) and the Carbothane 137HS Part A Safety Data Sheet already hosted on your own site (VOC content). Carboline's official TDS PDF is blocked to automated access (robots.txt) — I could not pull volume solids, DFT or pack size from it. If you can download it from your Carboline rep or account, send it over and I'll fill in the rest with real numbers instead of leaving them blank.

Substrate Preparation

  • Corrosivity Category: Suitable for direct-to-metal application in C1–C3 environments without a primer.
  • Higher Corrosivity: For C4–C5 environments, apply over an appropriate Carboline primer system.

Primer Systems

  • Specific primer product names/DFT ranges were not published in the sources I could access — confirm the approved primer system with Carboline for your substrate and corrosivity category.

Application

  • Two-component polyurethane, mixed per Carboline's stated ratio before application (ratio not published in the sources checked).
  • Formulated for fast-drying, high-build application with excellent dry times relative to standard polyurethane topcoats.

Drying Schedule

Specific tack-free, recoat and full-cure times were not published in the sources I could access for this product — Carboline's official data sheet is blocked to automated fetching. Confirm with Carboline or your TDS copy before publishing exact hours.

Third-Party Certifications & Compliance

  • No third-party fire or corrosion certifications were found in the sources checked for this specific product — as a topcoat it is typically used as part of a certified system rather than certified on its own. Confirm with Carboline if a specific approval is required for your project.
