Remote or Inaccessible Locations
RepliSet allows otherwise inaccessible surfaces to be examined.
• Use a slow curing, fl uid type of RepliSet.
• Mount an extension tube on the nozzle.
• Leave the tube in contact with the replica until it is cured.
• Retrieve the replica and tube together.
Positive Replica
A positive replica of a 3D surface can be produced, making a
replica of the original replica.
• Leave the fi rst replica for at least one day, before the second
replica is made.
• Strip the second replica as soon as it has cured.
Hard Replica
A hard positive replica of a 3D surface can be produced, making
an epoxy replica of a RepliSet replica. A re-entrant surface can
thus be replicated and measured using contacting equipment.
• Leave the RepliSet replica for at least one day, before the epoxy
replica is made.
• Cast the second replica using SpeciFix-20. Vacuum
impregnation is recommended.
Note: The geometry of the epoxy replica is infl uenced by the
shrinkage of the epoxy system.
Humid Environ ments
RepliSet is water-repellent, and can provide replicas of humid
surfaces with appropriate application techniques.
High Temperature Application
The compound has to be applied quickly and under pressure
directly at the surface.
• Coat a strip of backing paper with RepliSet compound on the
shiny side.
• Rapidly paste it on the surface, whilst pressing the compound
against the surface.
