Tercoo® is the ideal tool for the preparation of metal keels prior to coating and an excellent tool for the maintenance of metal surfaces on your boat. Tercoo® is a drill-mountable rotating disk for the removal of rust, paint, tar, epoxy, paint, adhesives etc from various materials such as steel, iron, concrete or stone. The result is a sandblasted surface with the appropriate texture suitable for the application of a new protective coating. Tercoo® consists of a pair of natural rubber disks, each with 12 hard metal (tungsten carbide) tips (pins). The tips are at a certain angle to the centre of the disks. During operation, the centrifugal force created by the rotational speed of the drill causes the flexible rubber disks to react in such a way, that a “hammer effect” is created with the tungsten carbide tips. This movement ensures that the tips clean the surface perfectly, removing all contaminants and other old coatings. The hammer effect creates no heat, so tough materials such as tar, adhesives and sealants will be easily removed. This is an entirely opposite concept compared to other tools. Other tools use friction to remove contaminants (steel brush etc) which produce a lot of heat and work ineffectively with bitumen based products, tar, adhesives, tectyl etc.In other words, it does not matter what the coating, Tercoo® is always clean. Maximum speed: 4000 rpm Optimal speed: Between 2500 and 3000 rpm Required Spin Direction: Clockwise Not suitable for use on edges and raised surfaces etc. 8mm shaft - fits any standard drill chuck (drill not included) Supplied with instructions
