DELTA-PROTEKT KL100 - Application and Performance

​DELTA-PROTEKT®   |   Overview   |   Properties   |   Application and Performance​

Application:

Delta Protekt KL100 is used as a base coat for ferrous components processed in a basket or on jigs.

Products processed in a basket by dip-spin:

Bolts, Nuts, Dowels, Clips, Clamps, Tension Springs, Pins, Small Castings as well as other fixing elements for the automotive industry, building industry, Steel construction, and many other industries.

Products processed on jigs by dip-drain or spray:

Larger components such as stampings and pressings, large compression springs, chains guide rails, mounting rails, fixing plates trailer couplings connectors, materials handling components etc.

Degreasing:

All the more well-known processes that have no detrimental effect on parts may be used. Delta GBN have facilities for both aqueous and solvent cleaning.

Scale/Rust:

All the more well-known chemical pickling processes can be used unless they are detrimental to the parts in question. Shot blasting can also be used on suitable components.

Performance:

The corrosion resistance of Delta Protekt KL100 will increase with increasing coating thickness and number of coats, it exhibits a self–healing effect caused by the migration of zinc corrosion products into damaged areas.

Standard protection – salt spray test according to ASTM B–117 over 480 h. 20 to 26 g/m² dry coat weight equivalent to 6 to 8µ dry coat thickness.

Improved protection – salt spray test according to ASTM B–117 over 1000 h. 32 to 38 g/m² dry coat weight equivalent to 10 to 12µ dry coat thickness.

Delta Protekt KL100 can be used in areas exposed to heat up to 180°C and is resistant to organic solvents.

Delta Protekt KL100 provides bimetallic corrosion resistance when used on parts assembled to aluminium.
