Tectyl 506 

Tectyl 506 is a corrosion preventative compound with a wax-based, solvent cutback formulation. It boasts effective water displacement capabilities and excellent penetration, making it ideal for a broad range of protective uses in automotive, marine, household, and industrial settings. This product is also well-suited for both indoor and outdoor protection of components, ensuring their integrity during extended transportation.

Once applied, it dries to form a firm, waxy, and translucent film with a dark amber hue.

To apply Tectyl 506:

Step 1: Prepare the surface

Make sure the metal surface is clean, dry, and free of rust, oil, and mill scale. The metal should be between 50-95°F (10-35°C). 

Step 2: Shake and spray

Shake the can well and spray from about 25 cm away from the surface. 

Step 3: Apply multiple layers

Spray one layer, wait 2–3 minutes, and then spray another layer. Repeat until you reach the desired film thickness, and the equipment is completely covered.  50 micron is the most economical  thickness – A wet film thickness gauge/comb can help with this

Step 4: Allow to dry

Tectyl 506 is usually dry to the touch in 45–60 minutes. Warmer environments will reduce dry time

Tectyl protective coatings exhibit strong adhesive properties with metal surfaces, in turn forming an active polar binded rust preventive barrier. Tectyl products are engineered for short- or long- term protection, as well as indoor or outdoor exposure. They are designed to help metal surfaces resist the effects of moisture, salt spray and even harsh corrosives. These properties have resulted in many types of Tectyl products which are multi-functional in their performance

How long does a Tectyl protective coating last?

Tectyl 506 protective coating can last 36 months indoor and 18 months outdoor with as little as a 50-micron coating. This allows you to lightly coat your assets or stock and leave them on the shelf for 3 years. We have products to suit every application, making use of solvent, non-solvent and water based technology.
