Description
BAMA GELSTEEL STRONG is a high viscosity product with pickling and passivating action on austenitic steel (300 series steel), martensitic steel (400 series steel) and austene-ferritic steel (duplex and superduplex alloys).
The gel removes oxides, salts and other residues from previous processes from the surface of the metal, eliminating the risk of localised corrosion.
BAMA GELSTEEL STRONG is particularly effective in removing any trace of welding oxidation.
Characteristics
BAMA GELSTEEL STRONG can be applied to the surface to be treated by spray or brush.
Spray application is suitable for large surfaces, while brush application is suitable for small or well-defined areas (e.g. welding).
BAMA GELSTEEL STRONG does not remove any slag or welding lumps that can only be removed by mechanical action.
Mode of use
The time that the product remains on the surface to be treated depends on the type of stainless steel, the operating temperature and the extent of oxidation on the surface.
