This tape is specifically designed for reinforcing chines (the corner where hull sides meet the bottom), hull/deck joints, and similar structural corners and edges where stress concentrations can lead to cracking. The 2" width is perfect for narrower applications and detailed reinforcement work.
Abrasion Resistance:
Beyond crack prevention, the fiberglass tape bonded with epoxy provides excellent abrasion resistance, protecting vulnerable edges and corners from wear and impact damage. This is particularly valuable for chines and other areas subject to contact and abrasion.
Woven 9 oz Construction:
The woven fabric construction provides balanced strength in both directions while remaining flexible enough to conform to curves and corners. The 9 oz weight provides substantial reinforcement without excessive stiffness or difficulty in application.
2" x 10' Roll:
The 2" width is ideal for narrower applications, detailed reinforcement work, and situations where the 4" tape would be too wide. The 10' length provides ample material for multiple applications or extended runs. The roll format makes it easy to cut to the exact lengths needed.
Key Benefits:
Structural Reinforcement: Adds tensile strength to critical areas
Crack Prevention: Resists hairline crack development
Abrasion Resistance: Protects edges and corners from wear

WEST SYSTEM
WEST SYSTEM Special Coating Hardener 17.34 Gallon #207-SE
$2,275.53
$2,639.61
WEST SYSTEM 207-SE Fiberglass & Repair
207 Special Clear Hardener is specially developed for use with WEST SYSTEM 105 Resin in coating applications where an exceptionally clear, moisture-resistant, natural wood finish is desired. This 17.34 gallon bulk container is designed for large-scale professional operations, production environments, and major bright-finish projects requiring substantial quantities of clear-coating epoxy.
Exceptionally Clear Finish:
207 cures to a light amber color similar to traditional spar varnishes, providing a warm, natural appearance that enhances wood grain without the yellowing or cloudiness that can occur with other hardeners. This clarity makes it the preferred choice for bright-finished wood applications where the beauty of the wood is the focal point.
UV Inhibiting Additive:
A UV inhibiting additive improves the resistance of the 105/207 mixture to sunlight degradation, providing better protection than standard epoxy formulations. However, the cured epoxy surface will still require the additional protection of a quality UV-filtering varnish for long-term durability and appearance in direct sunlight exposure.
Self-Leveling for Smooth Finishes:
207 is formulated to self-level, flowing out smoothly to create glass-like finishes without brush marks or surface irregularities. This self-leveling property also makes it excellent for wetting out and bonding fabrics, ensuring complete saturation and smooth, professional results.
Versatile Performance:
Beyond clear coating, 207 provides good physical properties for general bonding applications and is particularly useful for laminating veneers where bleed-through at joints may be exposed to sunlight. The clear finish and UV resistance make it ideal for applications where both appearance and durability matter.
Key Benefits:
Exceptionally Clear: Light amber color enhances natural wood beauty
UV Inhibitor: Improved sunlight resistance over standard epoxy
Self-Leveling: Flows smoothly for glass-like finishes
Moisture Resistant: Excellent protection for wood surfaces
Natural Appearance: Similar to traditional spar varnishes
Bulk Volume: 17.34 gallon for large-scale professional operations
Ideal Applications:
Large-scale bright-finished wood coating and sealing
Production environments requiring clear coating
Clear coating applications requiring natural wood appearance
Wetting out and bonding fabrics for smooth finishes
Laminating veneers with exposed joints
Professional boatyards and production facilities
Working Characteristics:
Mix Ratio: 3 parts 105 Resin to 1 part 207 Hardener (by volume)
Pot Life at 72°F: 22-27 minutes
Cure to Solid State: 12-18 hours
Cure to Maximum Strength: 4-7 days
Minimum Temperature: 60°F for reliable cure
Important Notes:
Note the 3:1 mix ratio—this hardener requires a different ratio than 205 or 206 hardeners, so verify you're using the correct metering pumps or measuring method. While 207 contains UV inhibitors, always protect the cured epoxy with a quality UV-filtering varnish for long-term outdoor exposure.
This 17.34 gallon bulk container is designed for professional boatyards, production facilities, and large-scale operations where exceptionally clear, moisture-resistant epoxy coating is essential for high-volume bright-finish work.
