Cortec VpCI®-347 Corrosion Inhibitor/Heavy Duty Lubricant

Product Description

VpCI®-347 is a multifunctional corrosion inhibitor/heavyduty lubricant concentrate for metalworking operations. High performance characteristics make VpCI®-347 ideally suited for heavy-duty cutting, milling, turning, drilling, boring, broaching, gear cutting, and other machining operations. VpCI®-347 contains lubricating and corrosion inhibiting compounds, and is resistant to rancid attack by bacteria. When used as directed, VpCI®-347 prevents corrosion during in-plant processing, storage, and export shipment for up to 24 months, while also eliminating problems caused by petroleum-based products.

Features

• Low to no smoke or burning vapors  
• Low foaming  
• Prevents corrosive attack caused by chlorides, aggressive industrial gases and acidic atmospheres  
• Effective in high humidity (laboratory tests of standard cold-rolled steel panels showed no signs of corrosion at 100% relative humidity after 2,000 hr. per ASTM D-1748)  
• Provides excellent drawability, lubricity and wetting under pressure  
• Displaces water and oil from metal surfaces, leaving a thin transparent film  
• Economical (can be diluted up to 1 part VpCI®-347 to 40 parts water)  
• Protects ferrous and non-ferrous metals  
• Easy to remove from metal surfaces
• Contains no chlorinated compounds, chromates, or nitrites  
• Eliminates cleaning and housekeeping problems associated with rust inhibiting oils  
• No need for slushing oils  
• Weldable in most cases.  
• Resistant to rancid attack by bacteria  
• Forms a transparent film  
• NATO #6850-66-132-6101
            #6850-66-132-6102  
• NSN 6850-01-470-2740

Typical Application

• Lubricant for heavy-duty rolling, drawing, extruding, stamping and cutting  
• In-plant machining  
• Protection of hot-rolled, cold-rolled, galvanized, and aluminized steel  
• Corrosion protection for bearings, piping and tubular parts, housings, stampings, bar and roll stock, and structural steel during in-plant storage or domestic and export shipments  
• Coolant for machining of castings, highly polished pieces and other parts; providing superior protection between machining operations and further processing or assembly

Metals Protected

• Carbon steel  
• Aluminum  
• Cast iron  
• Stainless steel  
• Copper
