Description
Rustilo Aqua ™ 498 is an innovative, high performance, environmentally responsible water-based corrosion preventive
formulated on mineral oil and a selected blend of corrosion inhibitors.
After evaporation of the water phase Rustilo Aqua 498 deposits a highly efficient oily-greasy film, which is usually just
provided by solvent-based products.
Application
Rustilo Aqua 498 can be used to protect a wide range of ferrous parts, but is particularly effective on tubings, bar
material and other components with uniform geometry where corrosion protection and drying time will be optimised.
Rustilo Aqua 498 is ideal for protection of these parts and components prior to long-term storage or with appropriate
packing also for overseas shipment.
Conditions of Use
Concentration: 100%, as supplied ("Ready-to-Use")
Temperature: 20 - 30 ° C
pH-Range: 8.7 - 9.1
Advantages
Reliable corrosion protection on ferrous metals
Excellent wetting characteristics ensure the creation of an even protective coating
Good film retention reduces dripping off losses and thus increases process reliability
Environmentally responsible water-based formulation provides a safer working environment:
- Solvent-free formulation; complies with EC Solvent Directive (1999/13 / EC)
- Eliminates fire hazard, hence possibly provides potential for reduction of insurance premiums
- Free from heavy metals, such as Barium
- Mild odor
Multi-metal compatibility
Short drying time - minimum impact on process / production times
If required protective films of Rustilo Aqua 498 can be removed by using an alkaline process cleaner, also
available from Castrol
