Hello, Does anyone know how much heat the varish on a F&P motor will. handle? I cast a new mount for it and the manufactor of the plastic resin I used should be cured at 212 Deg for 2 Hrs. Think it'll handle it? Thanks,Gary |

I looked on Wikipedia and it tells me modern wire varnish ( polymer ) insulation is good for 250c http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet_wire 212c is pretty hot, and 2 hours is a long time to be that hot, I would expect the F&P plastic to melt. But are we talking C or F? 212f = 100c, boiling point of water. Yes the F&P would be fine. 212c = 413f, platic would be melting.

Glen, Thanks for the reply.... yeah thats what I thought too,oh I was talking degrees. Guess I should have thought of that before buying it....... it can be cured by time but will take a week or so as long as its not real humid. It will be a sloooow process. Thanks again Take care my friend Gary |
