Rust Preventive Oils & Rustojel


Rust Preventive Oils

It is important to undertake the necessary preventive steps before rust promoting nuclei infiltrate into your metal components. Suprabha offers both, film forming and non film forming rust preventive oils.
Advantages of VCI Rust Preventive Oils over Traditional Rust Preventive Oils
Traditional Rust Preventive oils work on the principle of Contact Inhibition. If the oil film is disturbed in handling, the area underneath catches rust & subsequently spreads to the areas beneath the oil layer.
VCI Rust Preventive oils work on the principle of both Contact and Vapour Corrosion Inhibitions. As a contact inhibitor, they form a film that adheres to the metal surface, forming an effective barrier between the metal and the surface atmosphere. The VCI chemicals blended in the oil release continuous vapours into the air over the oil. In case the oil film is disturbed in handling, the vapours from the chemicals from the neighbouring areas create a vapour barrier thus protecting the metal surface at all times. The vapours also migrate to the recessed areas of the component, where physical application of oil is not possible.

Special Features

Protection to ferrous and non-ferrous metals except brass and cadmium
Special properties to neutralise acid, in the atmosphere or transferred by the finger prints on to the metal surface
De-watering properties to de-bond the water from the wet surface of the component
100% eco-friendly and environmentally safe
Non-toxic and mild odour makes it ideal for in-plant use
Conform to IS-1674

Rustojel

Suprabha Rustojel is a Ready-to-use petroleum jelly based rust preventive gel. Upon application a tenacious film is created on the machined surface. The vapours released by VCI create a protective vapour barrier that keeps corrosion promoting agents like moisture and oxygen away.
Ideal to use on partly machined large castings received from vendors, fabricated items, welded joints etc.

Special Features

It provides protection to Ferrous as well as Non-Ferrous metals
Even in adverse conditions of 100% relative humidity the recessed areas of the metal surface are also safely protected
Protection from rust during storage both indoor as well as outdoor
Non-hazardous and environmentally safe
Economical and easy to handle
Protected areas of the component do not require cleaning / degreasing thereby saves time and effort
Components when additionally wrapped in Suprabha Rustopaper can offer long periods of protection
Easy to clean using common degreasers
