Corrosion can seriously damage your processes and products, resulting in major repairs, production downtime and costs. By using the right corrosion inhibitor, you can ensure optimum preservation of your components and effective protection against damage to your business.
Kluber corrosion inhibitors provide
- Lubrication and protection of your components: significant reduction of wear and degradation of various materials
- Proven effectiveness: multiple tests on in-house test rigs
- Tailor-made solutions: specifically designed to meet individual requirements
- High-performance product range: competence and expertise from more than 90 years of research and experience
Corrosion inhibitors are substances that protect metals and other materials from unwanted degradation (corrosion). Corrosion occurs, for example, when a material comes into contact with water.
According to the World Corrosion Organisation, corrosion costs three to four percent of the gross domestic product of all industrialised countries. Corrosion can only be countered by the use of a suitable protective agent, which protects the material from harmful effects in the long term and thus ensures the operation of the equipment.
Depending on the technical environment, different types of lubricants can be used as industrial corrosion inhibitors. Whether an oil, grease, paste or bonded coating is used, the most important aspect of corrosion protection is the permanent separation between the part to be protected and the surrounding media.
Corrosion not only shortens component life, but can also lead to production downtime and high maintenance costs. We can help you effectively prevent this damage by selecting the right corrosion inhibitor for your application. For this selection, all other tribological requirements (mechanical loads, temperatures) must also be taken into account.
Advantages of Kluber Corrosion Inhibitors:
- Longer relubrication intervals and lower maintenance costs due to minimal wear
- Effective protection against a variety of corrosive media
- Suitable for components as diverse as chains, gears, hinges, screws and bolts, rails, bearings, etc.
- Ensures less damage during assembly and disassembly through easier handling of e.g. bolted joints
- Ensures less noise
- Operational safety, e.g. NSF H1 registration for the food processing industry
Choosing the right corrosion inhibitor for your needs depends on your individual requirements. Effective corrosion protection is often only one of many aspects of extending component life. In addition to the component itself, operating speeds, temperature range and environmental media all play a role. We always recommend that corrosion protection is considered in conjunction with all other tribological requirements to achieve the optimum solution.
Techniparts offers both effective anticorrosives to protect intact components from future damage and powerful corrosion inhibitors for components already affected by corrosion.
