NOX-RUST 509

NOX-RUST 509 Tan-Opaque, 130°F Minimum Hot Application Soft-Film Wax Corrosion Preventive Compound QPL Approved Under Military Specification, MIL-C-11796C, Class 3

NOX-RUST 509 is a Qualified Products Listed (QPL) for use under Govt. Designation MIL-C-11796C, Class 3, QPL Reference Number M-6154.
This specification covers a suitably formulated petrolatum-base, corrosion preventive compound. Class 3 classification specifies a ‘soft film’ corrosion preventive compound.

NOX-RUST 509 is a hot-application (minimum 130°F) corrosion preventive compound delivering incredible protection against high humidity and salt air corrosion for both ferrous (iron-containing) and non-ferrous (no-iron) metals.

This premium soft, grease-like wax melts at 162°F-190°F to provide enhanced adhesion and exceptional penetration into hard-to-reach crevices on metal surfaces, forming a thin, tan, semi-firm wax-like film .

Free of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), this premium hot application lubricating film is stable against oxidation when exposed to airborne moisture/oxygen and furnishes a powerful barrier against atmospheric corrosion.
NOX-RUST 509 delivers maximized rust prevention and quality lubrication to moving metal parts, being sure to keep your equipment in optimal condition even under the most extreme conditions and in the harshest environments.

Product Uses:

• Soft, Opaque Amber, 130°F-160°F Hot Application, Corrosion Preventive Compound protects ferrous/non-ferrous (iron-containing/no-iron) metals for highly machined or polished parts from corrosion when exposed to high temperature environments and atmospheric corrosive conditions.
• Formulated to fulfill the requirements of Qualified Products Listed (QPL) for use under Govt. designation MIL-C-11796C, Class 3, QPL Reference Number M-6154.
• Formulated with ZERO Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) for minimal environmental impact.
• Soft Lubricating grease is also great for protecting ball and roller bearings.
• Wax film is extremely stable against oxidation, retaining flexibility and avoids rigidness in low temperature environments.
• Provides substantial protection for void spaces by the military on Naval Ships and submarines.
• Can be used to protect firearms during shipment and in storage.
• Protects as a rust preventive lubricant for axles, differentials, transmission shackle bolts and other similar parts.
• May be used as a pressure-gun lubricant for bearings of machines in use as well as storage.
• Removal can be performed via vapor degreasing or high-pressure steam cleaning.
• Close similarity in performance and application to Cosmoline wax-like petrolatum-based corrosion inhibitors.

Product Performance:

• When applied at the recommended wet film thickness of 1.5-2 mils over the surface profile, it will deposit the recommended dry film thickness of 1 mils.
• Covers 200 square ft. per pound (lbs.) when applied at the recommended film thickness.
• Can provide up to 1 year of outdoor and 5 years of indoor or undercover protection on metal substrates at the recommended dry film thickness (DFT).
• Ideally applied to surfaces at the suggested High Temperature Flow Point minimum of 130°F.
• Increased flow properties when molten/liquid state is reached at Melting Point of 162°F.
• Maximum temperature for application via dipping is 160°F as dripping will occur once that temperature is exceeded.

Application Equipment Recommendations: 

• Pumps with ratios of 30:1 or greater are advised for efficient use of container content.
• Tungsten Carbide Nozzles Tip in the spray gun is recommended. (.019" to .023" tip orifice size)
• High Pressure Fluid Hose of no less than 3/8 in. diameters is suggested for less than 50 ft. of material hose.
• Low Ratio pumps (30:1): operate through 100 ft. of 1/2 inch & 50 ft. of 3/8 inch hose for a max of 150 ft.
• High Ratio pumps(>30:1): operate through 200 ft. of 1/2 inch & 50 ft. of 3/8 inch hose for a max of 250 ft.
• Can be applied in the hot molten/liquid state (160°F-190°F) by hot airless spray or dip.
• Can be applied at warm, ambient temperatures by brush or swab.
