Ardrox 1218

Ardrox 1218 is a blend of phosphoric acid and inhibitors. It will remove rust, heat treatment scale and welding scale from ferrous metals.  Corrosion products on aluminium, copper and zinc alloys may also be removed. Ardrox 1218 is especially suitable for use on chromium plated ferrous materials and ferrous surfaces which require very close tolerances.

Ardrox 1218 is normally used diluted with water at a strength of between 10% and 50% (v/v). The actual concentration required will depend upon the amount of rust, scale or other corrosion to be removed. ARDROX 1218 may be used at temperatures from ambient to 60°C. At the higher temperatures the rate of removal of rust etc. will be greatly increased.
