What the numbers mean for a pour
Pours needed with a limit of 1 1/2 in per pour, the strictest of the limits the documents give. Worked out with the layer planner.
| Total thickness | Pours | Earliest start of last pour | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 in (25 mm) | 1 | no wait (one pour) | – |
| 2 in (51 mm) | 2 | not published | – |
| 3 in (76 mm) | 2 | not published | – |
| 4 in (102 mm) | 3 | not published | – |
The data sheet describes the wait in words only (“allow previous layer to fully cure before pouring subsequent layers”), so no time is calculated.

Paraphrased from the manufacturer’s documents.
Other notes
- Parts must be weighed on an accurate digital gram scale; Smooth-On says not to measure by volume.TDS
- Published physical properties for 692 were measured after 21 days at 70°F.TDS
- Castings 1/4 in. (0.64 cm) thick or less cure more slowly.TDS
- Smooth-On says not to vacuum-degas EpoxAcast 690 or 692.TDS
- The TDS advises a well-ventilated area, a NIOSH-approved respirator, safety glasses, long sleeves and rubber gloves.TDS
Layering
- With the standard (no-fan) method the maximum casting thickness is 1 1/2 in (3.81 cm) at 70°F.TDS
Temperature
- Cooler rooms are recommended for large-mass pours.TDS
Heat
- Cups or containers hotter than 120°F/49°C will damage the cured surface.TDS
- Heat deflection temperature is 100°F/38°C when cured at room temperature.TDS
UV and color
- Unpainted castings yellow under UV light or heat above 100°F/38°C.TDS
Coverage
- Specific volume of the mix is 25.7 cu. in. per lb.Page
Intended use
- Smooth-On calls 690/692 an excellent choice for river-table applications.TDS
Safety data sheet summary
Signal word: DangerSDS
Part A hazard statements
- H315 Causes skin irritation.
- H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction.
- H319 Causes serious eye irritation.
Part B hazard statements
- H302 Harmful if swallowed
- H312 Harmful in contact with skin
- H318 Causes serious eye damage.
- H411 Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.
Protective equipment
- Wear liquid-tight gloves such as butyl rubber, neoprene or PVC.
- Wear safety glasses with side shields.
- Where a risk assessment calls for it, use an approved air-purifying respirator with suitable cartridges as a backup to engineering controls.
Ventilation
- With adequate local exhaust ventilation, respiratory protection is not normally required.
A summary, not the full SDS. Read the SDS for both parts before use and follow its first-aid section in case of exposure. This is not medical advice.
