Corrosion Technologies CorrosionX, 6 oz Aerosol Can - 90101

CorrosionX uses patented Polar Bonding technology to displace moisture and bond to metal surfaces at a molecular level. Unlike waxy or hard coatings, it forms an ultra-thin fluid film barrier that actively creeps into seams and around fasteners to provide long-lasting protection. This thin-film coating doesn’t harden or become brittle over time, making it ideal for dynamic environments where flexibility is important. It also functions as a lubricant and penetrant, offering three-in-one functionality that sets it apart from many traditional corrosion inhibitors.

Yes! CorrosionX is completely safe and highly effective on electrical connections. Its dielectric strength exceeds 39,000 volts (ASTM D-877), allowing it to safely protect electrical systems without causing short circuits. The product displaces moisture and forms a protective film, making it ideal for use on switches, terminals, circuit boards, and other sensitive electronics, even in damp or marine environments.

CorrosionX is generally safe on most paints commonly used on aircraft, vehicles, and industrial equipment. It does not cause discoloration or damage to hardened paint finishes. However, due to its hydrocarbon composition, it may soften certain waxes or polishes. A spot test is recommended when applying to painted surfaces that include wax or polish layers.

CorrosionX provides long-term protection, often lasting months to years, depending on the environment and application method. Its indefinite shelf life in bulk containers also ensures it remains effective for long-term storage. Unlike coatings that dry out or flake off, CorrosionX maintains its protective fluid film, allowing for extended service intervals in both static and operational environments.

When stored properly in capped containers at room temperature, bulk CorrosionX has an indefinite shelf life, while the aerosol version lasts up to three years. Storage temperatures should remain below 120°F for aerosols and above 50°F for optimal performance.

Yes, CorrosionX is compatible with most common plastics such as acrylic, PTFE, nylon, vinyl, and polyethylene. It also shows no visible effect on common rubber materials like Buna-N, Viton, and Neoprene. However, slight swelling may occur in butyl rubber or silicone-based sealants, so spot testing is recommended before full-scale use.

Yes, CorrosionX is widely used in aviation and meets many of the performance expectations for aircraft maintenance. While not specifically MIL-PRF-81309F certified like CorrosionX Aviation, it still offers excellent moisture displacement, corrosion protection, and electrical safety. It is especially useful for protecting airframes, avionics, and connectors in general aviation, rotorcraft, and UAVs.

Yes, CorrosionX is also an effective lubricant. It offers superior anti-wear performance with a 0.40 mm wear scar value in ASTM D-4172 testing – far better than conventional lubricating oils, which typically score 1.0 mm or greater. This makes it suitable for use on hinges, pulleys, control linkages, and other moving parts.

CorrosionX excels in harsh environments, resisting corrosion even after prolonged exposure to salt spray and humidity. In ASTM B-117 testing, it withstood 96 hours of salt spray at a 0.19 mil film thickness, and over 1,300 hours in humidity cabinet testing (ASTM D-1748). It’s ideal for marine, coastal, and humid climates where corrosion can rapidly degrade metal components.

CorrosionX is considered nontoxic and does not contain chlorinated solvents, making it safer for the environment than many traditional rust inhibitors. However, it is petroleum-based and should still be handled responsibly, avoiding unnecessary runoff or introduction into waterways. Used rags and application tools should be disposed of according to local regulations.

Yes, CorrosionX is a highly effective water displacer. It penetrates beneath moisture on metal surfaces and establishes a protective barrier to prevent further corrosion. This makes it ideal for drying wet components and restoring function to water-exposed electronics, engines, or tools.

Absolutely! CorrosionX is a go-to product for corrosion control in marine environments. Whether used on boat trailers, engine parts, electronics, or control cables, it offers lasting protection against saltwater exposure and humidity – two of the most damaging elements in maritime operations.

Thanks to its ultra-thin film application, a single gallon of CorrosionX can cover up to 4,010 square feet. The typical film thickness is approximately 0.0004”, which is enough to protect surfaces without interfering with mechanical tolerances or moving parts.

CorrosionX liquid is not classified as flammable under OSHA hazard communication standards. It has a high flash point of over 143°C (290°F), as determined by Cleveland Open Cup testing, which qualifies it as a non-flammable material for general handling and use.

However, CorrosionX aerosol is classified as a flammable aerosol due to its hydrocarbon propellant. While the product itself has a high flash point, the propellant can ignite under certain conditions. For safety, avoid spraying the aerosol onto hot surfaces or near sparks or open flames. Always store aerosol cans in a cool, dry place—away from direct sunlight and temperatures above 122°F (50°C) – in accordance with DOT and OSHA storage guidelines.
