Cortec announced the launch of CorrTube, the latest addition to the company's anticorrosion packaging solutions, which provides multimetal corrosion protection.
EcoCortec®, Cortec Corporation's Croatian anticorrosion films plant, has expanded its selection of anticorrosion packaging for industrial and military uses with CorrTube, a corrosion inhibiting packaging and shipping tube.
CorrTube is a multimetal and environmentally safe solution, providing corrosion protection for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals and the possibility to recycle it into other types of paper products such as boxes, cardboard and other corrugated materials.
CorrTube is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, biodegradable and doesn't contain any nitrites, phosphates, silicates or other hazardous compounds.
How CorrTube works
The VpCI® coating on the inside of the tube vaporizes, reaching all metal surfaces to provide complete corrosion protection.
The inhibiting action of VpCI® forms a thin, effective protective layer that does not alter the appearance of products or require removal before further finishing or use.
Fields of application of CorrTube
CorrTube protects dry or oiled metals during storage, transit and overseas shipment. It is effective against aggressive environments including humidity, SO2, H2S, and galvanic corrosion from dissimilar metals.
The typical applications are:
- Raw barstock
- Cylindrical and rod-like parts
- Gears
- Bearings
