Powercrete R95: THE High Build Epoxy

 

Product Spotlight: Powercrete R95 — A Field-Friendly High-Build Epoxy

When it comes to protecting field joints and targeted sections of pipe, crews need coatings that are tough, flexible, and practical to apply in the real world—not just in a lab. That’s exactly where Powercrete R95 shines.

Powercrete R95 is Henkel’s (formerly Seal for Life) high-build, novolac hybrid, two-part epoxy, engineered specifically for demanding field applications. Designed to perform in challenging environments, R95 is rated for continuous service temperatures up to 203°F, making it a strong choice for a wide range of pipeline and facility projects.

R95 can be used as a stand-alone coating, delivering robust corrosion protection on its own. It also plays well with others. Many operators use it as an additional protective layer over FBE or other epoxy coatings, adding extra insurance where conditions are especially aggressive or where coating damage is more likely.

One of the standout features of Powercrete R95 is its ability to be applied up to 30 mils in a single pass. Like all high-build epoxies, achieving that thickness does require some attention from the applicator—but fewer passes can mean faster application and fewer opportunities for defects.

Packaging is important in the field, and R95 checks that box as well. It’s available in:

• 2 lb kits

• 4 lb kits

• 50 ml repair cartridges

• Custom kit configurations

Powercrete R95 is one of the most field-friendly epoxies we’ve seen—whether you’re coating a field joint, touching up a damaged area, or handling small repairs without wasting material.

Powercrete R95 was designed with applicators in mind. It’s a reliable, flexible option for crews who need epoxy performance without unnecessary complexity.
