Tempilaq !Plenty of pilaqs on here ! You temp them !
I know your question was where in NZ but currently I have on order ex USA for a product called Omegalaq. Exactly the same as Tempilaq. Same shaped bottle and same coloured label! Second order I have placed with them. You can bring it via YouShop without problems although they may baulk if you want the thinners as well. Priced some Tempilaq locally the other day - $150 for a 2oz bottle! Omegalaq is US$20 a 2oz bottle! Brownells will also send Tempilaq to NZ - I asked the question in the last few days. Just their selection is not great. I don't know what Blackwoods charge.Quote:

It's used to indicate the temperature.

I haven't bought any for a while now as a bottle lasts ages.

Pete - also used in the laminates industry I think, low temp range though.Quote:

I used to use it with the manufacture of Formica benchtops can be bought through the Laminex group. No idea cost though. From memory 165degC and 175degC.
Impeys sell a 2oz bottle for $150+gst :o Trouble is (apart from the price of course) is they only have 325 degF. No good for annealing except maybe to tell you if you have cooked the base of the cartridge.Quote:

After trying to find some for over a year, so now I have the motivation to complete my annealing machine.
What temperature range did you decide to get and where on the cartridge case are you going to put the tempilaq?
use to use those crayons, when straightening cylinder heads when I was engine reconditioning. ..
475 deg F on case body below shoulder and 750 deg F inside case neck.Quote:
