Delta T Marine is a water based one part coating comprised
of air filled ceramic and silica beads held in suspension by
an acrylic binder. It applies like paint and is maintenance
free providing thermal insulating capabilities for shipboard
construction.
Currently, Delta T Marine is
used on over 400 marine vessels from Alaska to Antarctica. This
coating has replaced most blanket and foam insulation products
reducing weight, and keeping the vessel within the new stringent
marine codes and classifications.
The
coating employs the best water based coating technology thereby
and containing no harmful elements. Unlike other insulation methods,
Delta T bonds to the substrate leaving no room for corrosion.
Direct bonding gives our coating the ability to insulate your
vessel without degradation for many years to come. By using our
coating system, you can rest assured that your vessel is protected
and that the interior accommodations will be comfortable.
Users
of Delta T Marine have found that the coating replaces most conventional
insulation methods yielding the same insulation capabilities,
but costing dramatically less. Many vessel owners have saved up
to 50% on total installed costs over conventional insulation.
Best of all, the coating is extremely lightweight. This allows
easy application around difficult areas such as stiffeners and
tight areas without adding excess weight!
Since our coating applies
quickly, labor savings and construction time frame escalation
are by products. This means that your normal thermal insulation
methods can now be performed by in-house painting crews instead
of using subcontractors. Your productivity will increase and allow
you to give the customer a better
product.
Another added benefit is the sound reduction of airborne
structural noise. By using Delta T Marine your vessel automatically
becomes quieter by reducing structural noise from 50-80%. Our
product is capable of a 1-3 dB drop in airborne structural noise
or a 28 SRC factor (For more about sound decrease in vessels,
please see our sound damping coating Delta dB
Sound Damping Coating).
This
innovative thermal insulation material is excellent for yachts
and commercial vessels and proven across the world!!

Benefits
include:
- DELTA-T is environmentally
friendly, containing no toxic or hazardous substances or materials.
- DELTA-T saves
total installation time when compared to conventional insulator
methods. No cutting, taping or special hangers. This frees
up the vessel for other fabrication.
- DELTA-T adheres
virtually to any material and eliminates the potential for
surface corrosion.
- DELTA-T is non-combustible,
nonflammable, thermal insulation.
- DELTA-T is a one-part
coating for surface insulation, personnel protection, and
corrosion protection.
- DELTA-T significantly
reduces or eliminates the possibility of condensation.
- DELTA-T is lightweight
(5.2 pounds per gallon). Approx 0.07lbs/sq.ft DFT.
- DELTA-T can be
"touched up" after minor structural repairs.
- DELTA-T can be
used much like a high build primer (sand able).
- DELTA -T contains no harmful
chlorides.
- DELTA-T is warranted
for the vessel's life if applied as per our criteria!
- INCREASE
YIELD FROM 10 SQ FEET PER HOUR INSTALLATION TO 1000 SQ FEET
PER HOUR!
Insulation: Delta T can
be "built up" with successive coats to increase
insulating capabilities. Each coat increases the insulating
capacity. However, the first coat is the most effective. Each
coat is approx. 20 mils in thickness dry.
Product limitations:
Apply at temperatures above 50 Deg F. If lower,
heat substrate prior to application.
Surface must be clean and free of rust, grease,
etc.
Surface must be completely dry before re-coat
to insure insulating capabilities.
Higher temperature surfaces may expedite dry
times. Low ambient temperatures require longer dry times.
Aluminum and stainless steel require no primer systems since the coating
contains no chlorides. Steel requires primer systems prior to
application of Delta T.
Delta
T Marine is certified by all major marine approval agencies.
