PICKLING FLUID

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PICKLING FLUID is used only on austenitic stainless steel as it corrodes other
materials.
It removes weld slag, annealing scale, grinding dust and iron parts etc., which
prevent a proper passivation of the stainless steel.
PRODUCT USES
PICKLING FLUID is used mainly for pickling installations and tanks. It may be used
by circulation, spray or in immersion baths.
APPLICATION, DOSAGE & CONTROL
Pretreatment: Before commencing, clean and degrease the surfaces to be pickled,
this will give the basis for uniform pickling. Use ARR-SAFETY LIQUID for degreasing
small metal surfaces. To degrease tanks etc. we advise the use of a 1-5% solution
of ARR-SAFETY LIQUID in warm water. After cleaning rinse thoroughly with water.

PASSIVATING FLUID

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
PASSIVATING FLUID creates a protective oxide layer on stainless steel surface after
activation (PICKLING).
APPLICATION
PASSIVATING FLUID is used mainly for stainless steel structures and tanks after
activation (PICKLING).
It is used by two methods: 1) By recirculation
2) By spray.
Passivating process with PASSIVATING FLUID is used only if stainless steel is
activated earlier with PICKLING FLUID.
Circulation Method:
This method is used mainly for pipe systems. Fill the system with cold undiluted
PASSIVATING FLUID. Time of processing is about 2 hours. Drain the system and
rinse with water.
