PELOX PASSIVATING PASTE 2KG

Pelox pickling and passivating are both chemical treatment processes used for surface treatment of stainless steel after welding or its exposure to high temperatures. The pickling process removes oxides and other contaminants from the material surface. The passivating process assists in the formation of a new chromium oxide layer. This layer helps to regain the corrosion resistance properties that otherwise would be weakened due to the introduction of oxides and contaminants during the welding process. Picking is normally followed by passivating treatment.
