The complete maintenance treatment for protection against:
- Corrosion
- Water displacement
- Lubrication and Light surface rust removal
One simple application by spray - swab or dip stops the spread of existing corrosion, gives lasting protection against further attack and removes and repels ambient moisture. Fitted with a 360 degrees spray system for all angle use - even upside down.
Application
PX24 is specifically used for preservation and corrosive inhibition after operation of certain gas turbine engines and as a de-watering and protective fluid. PX24 is ideal for use on all mechanical and electrical equipment being suitable for use on low voltage equipment up to 250V. As a penetrant, it will quickly free seized nuts, bolts and bearings, whilst the highly effective water displacing properties make the perfect damp-start solution for ignition systems and other electrical equipment.
The protective, lubricating film is non-conductive and remains operational even at severe sub-zero temperatures. It will not affect paints or plastics and is lastingly effective on all metals, including aluminium. Freshly machined surfaces resist finger-marking and will stay clean and bright, even in highly corrosive conditions
