September 5, 2019 - Cortec® Corporation is excited to unveil its newly revamped EcoAir® line of surface prep and rust prevention products packaged in eco-friendly bag-on-valve spray cans. These cans are powered by air rather than traditional flammable propellants and contain some of Cortec’s most popular corrosion solutions. The EcoAir® line includes options for biobased rust removal, water-based void space protection, and water-based cleaning/degreasing with flash rust protection. Of special note is the newest addition to the collection—EcoAir® Tool & Die—a rust preventative specifically designed for easier application and cleanup in the tool and die industry.

The fresh new EcoAir® package design and labeling make it straightforward and easy for users to know how each product is applied and whether it is intended to “Clean,” “Protect,” and/or “Preserve” metals. The portable cans are convenient for maintenance personnel, production employees, or preservation specialists to use for a variety of cleanup, rust removal, and rust prevention activities around the shop, on the production floor, or in remote preservation conditions where electrical-powered application equipment may not be an option.

The newly redesigned EcoAir® line includes the following:

• EcoAir® BioCorr® Biobased Rust Preventative

• EcoAir® 325 Tool & Die Rust Preventative

• EcoAir® 337 Void Space Rust Preventative

• EcoAir® 377 Multi-Metal Rust Preventative

• EcoAir® 414 Cleaner/Degreaser

• EcoAir® 422 Rust Remover

• EcoAir® 423 Rust Remover (gel for vertical surfaces)

These products offer a variety of user-friendly benefits on top of being portable and easy to apply. For instance, EcoAir® Tool & Die Rust Preventative, completely new to the EcoAir® line this year, is an outstanding option for the tool and die industry. EcoAir® Tool & Die is easy to spray on for protection of expensive molds. Unlike other rust preventatives that workers must clean off with solvents, EcoAir® Tool & Die does not need to be removed before the mold is used.

EcoAir® BioCorr® and EcoAir® 377 are two other rust preventatives that offer excellent advantages over traditional oil-based and greasy rust preventatives. These two EcoAir® products provide biobased and/or water-based rust prevention by leaving an unnoticeable dry protective film on metal surfaces. The two rust preventatives are easy to remove if necessary and promote a cleaner work area overall.

For void spaces where it is often challenging to protect hard to reach metal surfaces, EcoAir® 337 Void Space Rust Preventative can be fogged inside before shutting the enclosure. Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors will diffuse throughout the space and form a protective molecular layer on the metal surfaces. This is an easy way to protect intricate equipment internals or add a quick protective spray to a crate full of metal parts.

With Cortec’s EcoAir® 422 and 423 Rust Removers, workers have two biobased options for cleaning rust off metal surfaces. Both allow rust removal in 15-30 minutes without the harshness of other chemicals on the market. After rust removal, or simply during routine maintenance, EcoAir® 414 Cleaner/Degreaser is easy to spray on for a quick surface rinse that includes flash rust protection.

The EcoAir® line provides many great alternatives to traditional MRO (maintenance, repair, and operations)

products and rust preventatives with its user-friendly and environmental advantages. Contact Cortec® to find out more about these products today.
