Storage & Handling

Storage Information

Tactix" 123 is supplied in 500 pound steel drums. This product should be stored in a dry place, in the sealed original container, at temperatures between +2°C and +40°C (+35.6°F and +104°F). Under these storage conditions, the shelf life is 5 years. The product should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

Like most liquid epoxy resins, Tactix® 123 may crystallize when stored below room temperature. Heating the resin to 60 - 70°C (140 - 160°F), preferably in a water bath, for several hours, will reliquify it and restore its original properties.
