How Much Will You Save?  Let’s find out.

Atlas Tube offers complimentary EPOX Z KOTE Powder Primed Tube samples and a cost saving analysis report for all manufacturing trials. We provide an independent industrial engineer to examine your manufacturing process and its associated costs. To determine your potential EPOX Z KOTE tube savings, the industrial engineer records and analyzes the incremental differences in processing time and consumable materials. A confidential report is submitted to you upon conclusion of the trial.

Welding EPOX Z KOTE Powder Primed Tubing

• American Welding Society D1.1 prequalified procedure for directly welding through EPOX Z KOTE is available upon request.
• Welding Guide.  A secure ground and use of solid core or metal core wire produces structurally sound welds.
• Welding Fume Analysis.  An independent industrial hygiene evaluation was conducted during the welding of steel tubing coated with EPOX Z KOTE. “It is the certified industrial hygienists’ conclusion that fume concentration

levels generated while welding on EPOX Z KOTE are consistent with those generated while welding on uncoated metal.”

• EPOX Z KOTE Tubing is free from all solvents and does not emit any Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) during application and welding.
