USE INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Premix INSULCAST 333 in original container being certain to reincorporate any fillers that may have settled.
2. Weigh out required amount of INSULCAST 333.
3. Weigh into INSULCAST 333, the proper amount of curing agent according to the ratios indicated.
4. Mix thoroughly, being careful to scrape sides and bottom of container to ensure proper blending.
5. Evacuate for 2-5 minutes if void-free castings are required.
6. Pour into cavity or mold.

CURE SCHEDULES:
Insulcure 9: 8-12 hours at room temperature (25°) or 2 hours at 50°C.
Insulcure 11B: 2 hours at 100°C, (212°F) for masses less than 1/2 lb. For masses above 1/2 lb. cure 2 hours at 80°C, (177°F)plus 2 hours at 100°C (212°F). For optimum high temperature properties, post cure 1 hour at 150°C (302°F).

STORAGE REQUIREMENTS: :
This product has a tendency to settle upon shipment or storage. The product should be re-mixed well prior to use. Store material in a cool dry place.
