- Chemical Family
- Epoxy & Epoxy Derivatives
BJB Enterprises TC-1604-AB is a filled, easy to apply, laminating epoxy resin for variety of fabricating applications. Designed to be used with heavier weight fiberglass cloth (typically 8-10 oz.tooling fabric),TC-1604 can produce thick laminates without excess draining of the resin. Being a very stable system with low shrinkage.
