Tectyl 435D

Tectyl 435D Tan-Opaque, Non-Slick, 150°F Minimum Hot Application Wax Corrosion Preventive Compound QPL Approved MIL-C-11796C, Classes 1 and 1A

Tectyl 435D is a hot application corrosion preventive compound and is a Qualified Products Listed (QPL) for Govt. Designation MIL-C-11796C, Classes 1 and 1A, QPL Reference Numbers M-6179 and M-6172, respectively.
This specification covers a suitably formulated petrolatum-base, corrosion preventive compound with Class 1 specifying a ‘hard-film’ compound and Class 1A, a ‘non-slick, hard-film’ compound.

Tectyl 435D is a grease-type, 150°F minimum hot application, wax corrosion preventive compound that provides remarkable protection for both ferrous (iron-containing) and non-ferrous (no-iron) metals from corrosion in environments with high humidity or salt air, which is when salt particles are carried into the atmosphere by ocean waves and winds.
This high-quality, wax corrosion preventive when in its molten state (175F-200F) delivers enhanced adhesion, improved penetration for reaching hard-to-reach crevices on metal surfaces, and provides a firm film effective barrier against atmospheric corrosion.

Free of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), this premium hot application corrosion inhibitor compound presents a thin, tan, firm, and non-slick, wax-like film that will not oxidize when exposed to moisture or oxygen in the air.
Tectyl 435D will effectively combat corrosion providing durable and long-lasting protection that keeps your equipment in optimal condition, even in the most harsh and challenging environments.

Product Uses

• Tan-Colored and Opaque, 150°F-200°F Hot Application, Corrosion Preventive Compound protects ferrous/non-ferrous (iron-containing/no-iron) metals for highly machined or polished parts from corrosion in the presence of high temperature environments and atmospheric corrosive conditions.
• Formulated to fulfill the requirements of Qualified Products Listed (QPL) for Govt. designation MIL-C-11796C, Class 1 and Class 1A, QPL Reference Numbers M-6179 and M-6172, respectively.
• Formulated with ZERO Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) for minimal environmental impact.
• Wax-Like film will not oxidize.
• Can provide protection of packaged/unpackaged small metal parts, long-term indoor storage protection of highly finished surfaces, and unshielded outdoor storage of gun tubes, etc.
• Protects ballast tanks and void spaces by the military on Naval Shapes and submarines.
• Protects and lubricates wire rope used in the marine, mining, logging, oil, oil, gas, and ski lift industries.
• Excellent for lubricating stranding wires at a strander in the fabrication of wire rope and cable . Product is heated to 175F-200F and pumped over stranding wires just prior to entering the forming die on the strander.
• Can be applied for the protection of elevator and suspension bridge cables.
