Fiberlock ABC Asbestos Binding Compound - 5 gal
When high costs make asbestos removal an unsuitable choice, you can manage asbestos in-place through encapsulation. ABC Asbestos Binding Compound, our flagship product, is the world's most successful encapsulation solution. This highly effective, industry-standard, high-solids encapsulant meets Environmental Protection Agency guidelines. It's ideal for sealing in asbestos-containing material, as laboratory tests have shown. The EPA recommends you apply two coats for maximum effectiveness. Dilute the first coat with water so it can penetrate and bind the asbestos-containing material. Then apply the second coat at full strength. A-B-C completely encapsulates all fibers beneath a flexible, impact-resistant seal. A-B-C can also be diluted to perform just about any asbestos control task, from encapsulation to pre-removal wetting or room misting to post-removal lockdown of asbestos fibers.
A-B-C Asbestos Binding Compound is a high solids asbestos encapsulant, designed to encapsulate and seal friable Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) such as fireproofing and insulation materials. A-B-C is an important tool for coping with the health hazards associated with exposure to asbestos fibers. In 1978, A-B-C was tested for the EPA by Battelle Laboratories of Columbus, Ohio, and found to meet the requirements for the effective encapsulation and removal of ACM. In addition,A-B-C received German approval following a thorough evaluation conducted at the University. The high solids, nonflammable composition of A-B-C allows for dilution with water to provide maximum flexibility for specific asbestos abatement needs, including removal/lockdown, penetrating encapsulation and bridging encapsulation. Since 1978, A-B-C has provided exceptional long lasting performance in asbestos abatement worldwide.
