Sprayable cable and metal rust protector

tools, agricultural equipment and car parts. It prevents flash rust and corrosion on aluminium, brass, alloys, cast iron, hardened steel and stainless steel, and is easy to apply to large areas with the use of common sprayers. “Our customers have been asking for a non-aerosol sprayable version of HinderRust,” said Gregg Reick, Fluoramics’ president and chemical engineer. “We are happy to deliver this product, which can be used anywhere you need corrosion protection.” This HinderRust version can also be used as a lubricant during nut/bolt and final product assembly, to prevent rust, metal seizures and galling. HinderRust cable and metal rust protector is non-toxic and non flammable. All HinderRust products are non-hazardous, so they are safe to use anywhere and will not evaporate over time. The chemistry is both water displacing and self-repairing.

Fluoramics, a provider of thread sealants, greases, lubricants and corrosion control products, has introduced a new sprayable version of HinderRust cable and metal rust protector. HinderRust cable and metal rust protector provides ease of application, as it can be sprayed through off-the shelf chemical-approved squirt bottles or garden sprayers. It offers both short- and long-term protection against flash rust, pitting and corrosion. HinderRust products do not evaporate away, but are removable through normal finishing procedures such as power washing or cleaning with acids and chemicals. The product is applied as a liquid that wets to surfaces and creeps into seams and areas that cannot be reached. It starts protecting and lubricating surfaces upon application, and stops existing rust while preventing new rust from forming. It can be used for short- or long-term storage and shipping protection, or for equipment maintenance and storage,

The products are surface active through the adsorption chemical process, which spreads the product across the surface of metal and forms a molecular adhesion to it. Adsorption creates a thin film of HinderRust on metal surfaces, which makes it more difficult to wear off. Fluoramics, Inc www.fluoramics.com
