Application: |
RODECO 551 is
designed
vibratory
finishing
processes on all
metals and is
especially well
suited for
aluminum parts. |
|
Features: |
-
Maintains
brightness
of steel
media.
-
Low foaming.
-
Biodegradable.
-
Good
bleaching
characteristics
on all
metals.

Recommended
Dilution: |
One to two
ounces per
gallon of water
with a flow rate
of 1 to 1 1/2
gallons per hour
per cubic foot
of mass. In
batch systems, 2
to 3 ounces per
gallon are
required.
Concentrations
will be higher
for parts with
soil or short
process cycles. |
|
Storage: |
RODECO 551 will
start to
separate at
temperatures
below 45°. If
separated or
frozen, thaw
slowly and stir
before using. |
|
Inhibiting: |
Completely
drained steel
ball masses may
be stored for
short periods of
time without
inhibiting after
use. DO NOT use
inhibitors
containing
sodium nitrate
with RODECO 551. |
|
Disposal: |
RODECO 551 is
biodegradable
and contains no
critical
materials. To
the best of our
knowledge, it is
safe to flush
water solutions
of RODECO 551
into sanitary
sewer system
after adjusting
for pH
requirement.
Please consult
your local or
state EPA
