Thanks to the thinness, excellent sagging resistance and fast cure characteristics of PPG PITT-CHAR NX, the complete PFP coating system can be applied in just one day. The coating system is at least 15% lighter than ANY alternative epoxy PFP coating system and so-called "lightweight" cementitious systems are actually three times heavier.Īs well as providing substantial material savings, this reduction in PFP weight on topsides and steel structures also reduces both transport and construction costs. For example, based on our UL 1709 two-hour fire rating, PPG PITT-CHAR NX is 7.98mm (314 mils) thin. PPG PITT-CHAR NX is also noticeably thinner and lighter than ALL alternative passive fire protection systems. It will not only flex with the steel structure, but also resist vibration, impact and extreme environmental conditions. Once in service, PPG PITT-CHAR NX will provide dependable performance throughout the asset’s entire lifetime. This toughness comes from the coating's unique flexibility, which enables it to withstand stresses and strains without cracking or delamination during fabrication, erection, transportation and construction in vastly varying climates. PPG PITT-CHAR NX is formulated with patent-pending fireproofing technology to achieve the most durable PFP coating system yet. PPG PITT-CHAR NX does both and is proven to resist severe explosions and impact without affecting performance.įor further peace of mind, this coating system is comprehensively tested to comply with all the latest internationally recognized fire test standards.
This means you no longer need to choose between jet fire and pool fire for the optimized solution.
