The 1.7 gallon resin trap is designed to collect excess resin to protect your vacuum pump during vacuum bagging processes or to be used as a degassing chamber in order to removed trapped gasses from resins or silicones.
1.7 Gallon Resin Trap/ Degassing Chamber includes 3/8" O.D. barbed fittings and vacuum gauge.
The 1.7 gallon resin trap features a clear top so that you can observe what is happening during degassing or how much material has entered the resin trap.
The catch pot is stainless steel and mold release can be applied to it to facilitate clean up or a liner cup can be inserted before use to catch any excess resin. Our 5 quart plastic bucket fits nicely inside of this catch pot by trimming off the rim around the top.
Barbed fittings are fastened to the lid with 1/4 pipe thread and can be removed and replaced with other fittings as desired, for example if using it as a degassing chamber one of the barbed fittings can be removed and replaced with a ball valve to relieve pressure after degassing.
