Duraclean 283
Product description
- Duraclean.283 is alkaline liquid for steel and aluminum
used in coil coating painting processes.
Application
- Duraclean.283 is effective cleaner for galvanized,
electrogalvanized, stainless steel, aluminum, aluminum –
zinc alloy and cold roll steel strips.
Feature:
- Duraclean.283 cleans variety of coils substrates,
which makes it most suitable product for strip cleaning
application. - Duraclean.283 is design to remove oxides from
galvanized, steel and aluminum surfaces. - Duraclean.283 slightly etch
- aluminum whilst rinsing free from smut, it contains special sequestrate which prevent aluminum and zinc from precipitation in the tank. Thus minimizing sludge formation.

cleaner specially design for continuous strip cleaning application where the cleaning time is short and
cleaner has to be improved to accomplish the job
within short time period. - Duraclean 283 can be used as alkaline cleaner in aluminum powder coating line prior to acid etch tank. It improves the desired etching rate.
