PICKLING PRODUCT FOR STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES

“IT IS USED FOR THE CLEANING OF WELDING STAINS, HEAT OXIDES, CUTTING AND SANDBLASTING STAINS, RUST AND CORROSION LAYERS ON STAINLESS SURFACES.”
 

POWERFUL FORMULA
Thanks to its effective formula; it removes a micron-sized thin layer of metal from the metal surface. In this way, it provides fast and effective results in the removal of discoloration around welding seams and layers, rust and corrosion caused by heat treatment applications.

TECHNICAL FEATURES
The corrosion resistance of stainless steel is due to the chromium-rich passive oxidized layer present on the surface. The bright surface of stainless steel has the ability to self-passivize in a sufficient oxygen and chromium-rich environment. In air and aqueous media containing air, stainless steel spontaneously and continuously forms a corrosion resistant surface. This condition is permanent even under physical impact and surface scratches. Under the high heat generated during welding, the transparent passive layer thickens, changes color and tends to crust. Returning to room temperature, the steel surface is no longer corrosion resistant. With the use of METTOXIN P 10, the layer with possible chromium element reduction due to color changes, crust and heat application during the welding seam is removed from the steel surface. After the application, if necessary, METTOXIN B-21 should be used for passivization to help the formation of a protective passive oxidized layer on the steel surface again.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
For standard industrial steels, the product is diluted 1/1 to 1/3 with water. For high alloyed steel surfaces (904 L, 245 SMO and super-duplex (SAF 2507)), it is recommended to use the product directly without diluting with water. Application time is calculated depending on the type of steel used, surface contamination, bath temperature and freshness of the solution in the bath.

PACKAGE
PE 30 - 60 - 200 kg drums with original locked lid. The product maintains its stability for one year in its original packaging, at room temperature and under closed storage conditions.
