RESIN FEED SPIRAL DUAL MESH
When using a spiral hose as a vacuum infusion line, one of the biggest problems is marking the laminate. The Dual Mesh is a system formed by a spiral covered with a grid that allows to optimize the homogeneous distribution of the resin avoiding the marking of the laminate during the infusion process. Dual Mesh can also be used as a vacuum line or can replace the mold flange when it is too narrow.

RESIN STOPPER
It is a technical flange developed to maintain the vacuum level during all phases of the infusion process. It can be used with the main resin systems such as polyester, vinyl ester and epoxy. In the SLOW version with PEEL PLY a slower resin flow is maintained, the FAST system with the aerator strip increases the air/resin flow.
Resin Stopper products are designed for:
– Avoid waste of resin and preserve the auxiliary material used for. (pipes, taps, traps).
– It allows to work on all normal open molds even without flange.
– It allows a quick application thanks to its adhesive system.
Available in two versions:
– STANDARD with a strip of double-sided adhesive tape for application
-SLOW ADVANCED with a double-sided adhesive tape with an integrated PEEL PLY band make the application easier- APPLICAZIONE: Infusione
