CSM Engineered fabrics for Hovercrafts

Our Range of CSM fabrics for loops/ skirts and fingers.

ORCA® fabrics for Hovercraft has been developed by our engineers to show the best resistances to

abrasion,
low temperatures,
UV,
with high flexibility
and the lowest friction rate.

CSM compound has the strongest resistance to UV, with high abrasion properties.

Depending on the size of hovercraft and outside conditions, we propose you here our ranges especially adapted for the segmented skirts, tubular skirt…

Loops materials require suppleness, high UV resistance, high modulus of tearing and tensile strength.

ORCA® CLEANER

Cleaning guide

—

VIDEO

Specially developed to clean ORCA® fabrics. Discover our range of cleaning products.

Step 1 – New Magic cleaning instructions : Cleans and removes surface dirt.

Use : New Magic is recommended for regular light-cleaning. If used more than on a regular bases, we recommend diluting with water.

1 - Spray New Magic onto a wet tube.

2 - Clean and scrub with a non abrasive sponge.

3 - Rinse with clean water.

Step 2 – Use of Shmuffex :

Shmuffex properties : Removes spots on the various layers of the fabric.

Use : Apply Shmuffex immediately after completing step1. Protect elements surrounding the tube. Wear gloves and protective clothing when handling this product (contains chlorine). Check the expiration date of product before use (risk of loss of effectiveness).

1 - Spray Shmuffex generously, then using a non-abrasive sponge, spread over the whole surface of the tube.

2 - Let it set for 1 hour and make sure it doesn't dry out.

3 - Rinse with clean water. Repeat the process if necessary.

Step 3 – Use of Gumemp 100 :

Properties of Gumemp 100 : Protects the fabric against salt, atmospheric agents, and UV rays, by creating a surface film.

Use : Gumemp 100 must be used after a regular cleaning (Step1) or deep cleaning (Step 1 + Step 2). It is strongly recommended to perform a deep cleaning of the tube before placing your inflatable boat into long-term storage. This product must be appied on a perfectly clean and dry surface.

1 - Spray Gumemp 100 on the tube surface and spread evenly with a clean cloth. Wait for the product to completely dry and then polish it with a clean dry cloth.

2 - Before.

3 - After Step (1+2+3)

ORCA® HARDENER

The ORCA® Hardener improves adhesion strength of the assemblies.

This Hardener developed especially for the bonding of Neoprene and Neoprene Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene water resistant materials, as used for inflatable floats and inflatable structures. When using neoprene glue, ORCA® GLUE, add 5% to 10% ORCA® HARNDENER RFE according to the quantity of ORCA® GLUE used. From 10 liters of mixed product, it is possible to improve the pot life of the adhesive by reducing the quantity of hardener to 5% in volume only.

Average characteristics :
Solvents : Ethyl Acetate
Color : Light yellow
NCO contents : Approximately 7,2%
Reactivity : Very hight
Package : Alu Tin – 800gr
Flammability : Flash point less than 21°C – Highly flammable
Storage : 12 months in its original sealed packaging stored in an environment at 18 ° C and ventilated
Cleaning: Neopren solvent

Processing :
The addition of ORCA® Hardener RFE improves significantly the adhesion, cohesion and mainly the heat resistance of the final bond. (Dilutable with hexane)
