K-2 is a
pickling & passivation product for stainless steel and low alloy steel. This product
is one of its kind available with us. We take an opportunity to introduce our product for
surface teartment of stainless steel.
A UNIQUE
PRODUCT FOR FUMELESS PICKLING & PASSIVATION ON STAINLESS STEEL
Following
are the features of "K-2" :
 |
Removes
built in corrosion. |
 |
Removes
scales, discolourations, ferritic contaminations and burns
spots. |
 |
Stops
corrosion and restores full corrosion resistance. |
 |
Removes
metallic contaminants, oxide scales, rust spots and
annealing colours. |
 |
Gives
a flawless, uniform, smooth & contamination free, sterile,
particle free passive surface. |
 |
Mill
finish is retained. |
"K-2" is
available in three following forms having a common functioning of pickling and a common
form of passivation:
 |
"K-2" PASTE FORM
|
|
This
is a gel type chemical applied with a brush to descale the
heavy weld scales. It removes discolourations, heat marks,
annealing colours, rust particles in and around the welding
area caused due to heat evolution during welding. "K-2"
paste cleans 90-100 metres of weld seams in 1 kg. of chemical.

HOW TO APPLY K-2
PASTE
- Removal of oil - SI- 56 (Soak cleaner,
powder - 50 gm/lit.)
- K-2 paste is to be applied on the weld seam &
surrounding area with a brush.
- Leave the K-2 paste on the weld seam for 30-45 minutes depending on the
thickness of the oxide scale.
- Brush the surface with a plastic bristled brush and then wash surface thoroughly
with water.
- Next apply K-2 passivation solution and and leave it for 20-25 minutes.
- Finally clean the surface thoroughly with water.

"K-2" SPRAY FORM
|

Internal Pickling & Passivation

External Pickling & Passivation
|
This
is a semi-gel type of chemical and is used to pickle &
passivate large surface area with a spray pump. It also simultaneously
removes annealing colours, ferritic contamination and weld
burns. "K-2" spray is very safe, convenient and
easy to use for cleaning large vessels, agitators, tankers,
boilers, heat exchangers pressure vessels, storage tanks etc.
It also restores the Mill finish. This form of "K-2"
cleans 30 40 sq ft.area with 1 kg. of chemical.
HOW TO APPLY
- Removal of oil - SI-56 (Soak cleaner, powder -
50gm/lit.)
- K-2 spray is to be
sprayed on the S. S. surface with a pressurised plastic spray bottle or spray pump.
- After spraying leave
it for 30-60 minutes.
- Then wash the
surface thoroughly with water.
- Next apply K-2
passivation solution and leave it for 20-30 mins.
- Finally rinse the
surface thoroughly with water.

"K-2" DIP FORM
|
|
K-2
Dip is in the form of a water thin liquid. It is used for
immersion application for non-reachable areas & small
components. Cleaning can be done by dipping the article into
chemical. For pipeline cleaning, this chemical can be pumped
and circulated inside the pipelines for descaling. This form
of "K-2" covers 30 40 sq. ft area with 1 ltr.of
chemical.

HOW TO APPLY
- Removal of oil - SI - 56 ( Soak cleaner, powder
- 50 gm/lit.)
- Just immerse the
articles in the dip tank.
- Leave it for 45-60
minutes.
- Remove and wash the
articles with water thoroughly.
- Dip the articles
again in the K-2 passivating solution for 20-30 minutes.
- Finally wash the
articles with water thoroughly.
|
"K-2"
Passivation has to be used after the application of Paste, Spray or
Dip form as it is a must to passivate the articles after pickling.
Passivation helps in the formation of a thin passive film on the surface
which will protect it from further corrosion and contamination. 1
ltr. of "K-2" passivation covers 30-40 sq ft. Area.
 |
S I 56
|
| It is a degreasing
compound for removal of oil, grease & mild rust scales. |

|
THE
UNIQUE FEATURE OF "K-2" IS THAT WITHOUT DAMAGING THE PARENT
METAL IT DOES THE FUNCTION OF DESCALEMENT, OXIDE & RUST REMOVAL
PLUS GIVING A PASSIVE FILM WHICH AVOIDS FURTHER CORROSION.
"K-2" CAN BE
WIDELY AND EFFECTIVELY USED IN THE FOLLOWING INDUSTRIES / PRODUCTS.
