Scalgun B

SCALGUN-B is an aqueous acidic mixture that effectively removes grease, oil, and rust from iron and steel surfaces at low temperatures. It can be used in dipping or swabbing processes. When dipping, the concentration, temperature, and time should be adjusted based on the level of contamination, but generally involve concentrations of 10-25% at room temperatures up to 45°C for 5-30 minutes. Proper safety equipment should be worn when using SCALGUN-B.

SCALGUN-B

(For Degreasing & Derusting at Low Temperature)


SCALGUN-B is an aqueous inhibited acidic mixture, soluble in varying proportions with water. It
is a very effective degreaser cum deruster for iron & steel surfaces at low temperature. It has very
good penetrating power to disintegrate and dissolve, machine oils, light greases, lubricants as well
as rust or scales; either be dipping process or by swabbing.
APPLICATIONS:
Although SCALGUN-B is an excellent remover of light grease and oil, usually heavy soil
contamination should be removed first either in kerosene or by manually wiping off with a cloth
soaked in SCALGUN-B solution. Similarly surfaces having extremely heavy rust formation
should be removed mechanically or by means of wire brush during dipping method.
I. DIPPING METHOD:
The following parameters should be followed depending on soil contamination, cycle time,
etc. Actual parameters should be set after conducting initial trials.
Concentration Temperature Time

10% - 25% (v/v) R.T. - 45C 5-30 minutes

v/v = volume by volume; R.T. = Room Temperature

Please note that time temperature and concentration are interdependent on each other, thus
set the parameters accordingly.
EQUIPMENT :
Plastic or FRP lined M.S. tanks/containers should be used. Where heating of the bath is required
then Teflon coated electric immersion heater should be used or external heating can be employed,
but care should be taken that temperature does not exceed 45C.

II. SWABBING/BRUSHING
Concentration:- For heavy contamination : 1:1 or 1:2 with water
For medium contamination : 1:3 or 1:4 with water
For light contamination : 1:5 or 1:6 with water
Prepare above solution of SCALGUN-B in a Plastic Container or FRP lined MS tank, then dip
brush or cloth in this solution and apply on the contaminated surface and leave solution for 2 to 5
minutes till surface is completely clean then wipe clean with cloth soaked in water. For removal of
heavy soils, scrubbing or wire brushing is advisable. This will speed up soil removal. This process
can also be adopted before dipping process in cases of heavily soiled surfaces to extend life and
strength of bath solution of dipping tank.

( P.T.O.)
ISO 9001: 2008 Ref.No.FM/CR/01
The above process should be repeated if necessary, in cases where rust or oil still remains after first
application. Parts can then be processed further for phosphating or they should be dried
immediately and RUST PREVENTIVE such as ASFOSIL DW-95 should be applied by brush or
cloth if parts are to be preserved or stored.
PRECAUTIONS:
1) Use Rubber/PVC gloves while handling with this solution.
2) If SCALGUN-B is splashed on skin or eyes wash off with plenty of water.
