Durapass 712

Product description

Durapass 712 is a specifically formulated chrome free liquid blended product based in zirconium. It is used where strict environmental condition does not allow the use of chromium based products for the passivation of metals.

Application

  •  Durapass 712 is formulated product to be used for immersion and spray systems for most of the steel iron.
  •  Durapass 712 forms colorless fine passivated coating on work piece after phosphating of steel to enhance anticorrosion protection and eliminate salt water contamination on the surface.

Features

  • Durapass 712 is an environmental friendly product producing thin, uniform and transparent chromium
    free passivation at low concentration and temperature on metals.
