Top Industrial Products
Some of NZ's largest equipment operators use CorrosionX to product their assets
Trucks & Trailers
A number of NZ trucking companies use CorrosionX XD to protect their trucks/trailers, particularly those regularly exposed to salt water. Exxon Mobil uses CorrosionX XD to protect their fuel tankers and ground mounted fuel assets at Wellington Airport.
Heavy Machinery
Heron Construction uses CorrosionX XD as plant protection on backhoe dregers, tug boats & piling barges. HEB Construction uses CorrosionX HD to protect its heavy fleet from corrosion.
Hydraulic Fittings
We have many customers who use our products to protect hydraulic fittings because they facilitate easy condition monitoring (unlike Denso tape). MaxWax is perfect to protect new hydraulic fittings (it works best when applied to a clean surface).
CorrosionX XD can be sprayed directly onto already corroded fittings - it will stop existing rust and provide long lasting protection. Companies like as Heron Construction & Palfinger use CorrosionX XD to protect exposed hydraulic fittings from corrosion, particularly those destined for the Pacific Islands. Palfinger also spray it inside boom sections.
In Field Application
Northpower field crews across the North Island use CorrosionX as a penetrant in the field and to provide rust protection for ground-mounted assets such as transformers & generators.
PRODUCT INFO
Stop rust & corrosion
CorrosionX® is the most advanced and effective corrosion prevention compound, lubricant and penetrant in the world.
As a Corrosion Inhibitor…
Although it might look similar to other oil-based anti-corrosion sprays, CorrosionX utilises revolutionary Polar Bonding™ and Fluid Thin Film Coating (FTFC™) technologies that together do far more than merely slow down the corrosion process like other so-called 'corrosion inhibitors'. CorrosionX actually disrupts rust and corrosion on the molecular level (displacing it from the metal surface and keeping it from spreading) and provides long-term protection against rust and corrosion on any metal surface.
As a Lubricant….
CorrosionX's unique formulation offers a multitude of advantages over conventional lubricants. Because Polar Bonding causes it to stick to metal like a magnet, it cannot be easily displaced by pressure, friction or moisture. It lubricates under extreme loads and high temperatures. Not only does CorrosionX lubricate better, it lasts many times longer. This is especially true in outdoor, coastal and marine environments where direct exposure to rain and sea spray will quickly displace ordinary lubricants.
As a Penetrant….
CorrosionX penetrates faster and further than any penetrating fluid you've ever used. Corroded or rusted nuts, bolts or fittings can usually be disassembled within minutes. Even items you believe to be hopelessly seized can usually be saved and returned to service.
For the really tough jobs
We offer thicker film version of CorrosionX.
CorrosionX Heavy Duty (HD) is a thick-film corrosion preventive. CorrosionX HD forms a dripless, non-hardening, self-healing film that stubbornly resists removal by splash or spray – even by complete
immersion in saltwater. CorrosionX HD slowly penetrates existing rust and corrosion, stops electrolysis, removes moisture and then seals the moisture out. CorrosionX HD will still be there long after other products have disappeared.
CorrosionX Xtended Duty (XD) is a medium-film corrosion preventive. CorrosionX XD is an extremely versatile product that hits a sweet spot between our original ultra-thin film product and the extended durability and weather resistance of the thicker CorrosionX HD. Because CorrosionX XD is still relatively thin, it does not attract dust, it has good mobility to creep and penetrate, and it can be atomized into a smoke-like fog to thoroughly and efficiently treat interior cavities such as airframes and tubular frame structures. The increased film thickness offers longer-term resilience against the elements.

Assembly compound
We have many customers using CorrosionX HD as an assembly compound in their workshops.
CorrosionX HD is also a wonderful anti-galling agent for stainless steel fabrication. Heron Construction uses CorrosionX HD to prevent galling of the massive stainless steel bolts used in wharf construction.
Lubrication
CorrosionX Grease is a multi-purpose, extreme pressure rated NLGI #2 premium grease. CorrosionX Grease is engineered for maximum shear stability, film strength and heavy shock-load performance, and it offers unsurpassed wear and extreme pressure protection.
Due to its polar nature, CorrosionX Grease sticks to metal like a magnet, ensuring our grease provides long lasting lubrication and corrosion protection and a lot less mess than traditional greases, which are rapidly flicked off moving parts.
FAQ'S
Are there any harmful ingredients in CorrosionX ?
Not in the recommended application quantities. It’s one of the safest products of its kind. The SDS addresses this question further for corporate, military, or aviation concerns.
How does CorrosionX compare with wax coatings?
Wax CPC’S are designed to prevent rust/oxidation, not interrupt it. They can create problems by covering up the compromised areas, allowing it to grow underneath. Furthermore, it’s possible for moisture to penetrate through the wax and allow rust to form. Wax products are also extremely high in VOC.
Can I safely use the products for my helicopter?
You can use CorrosionX Aviation for any Aviation machines.
Can I use the products on circuit boards?
Circuit boards are a great place to apply CorrosionX . If they are corroded or have moisture causing problems, CorrosionX usually restores them.
Perfect for drones, VHF’s, fuse boxes, deck switches and aviation instrumentation.
Can you paint over CorrosionX?
No, it must be removed which isn’t easy because of polar bonding. A good solvent or “stream jenny” (if a large area is involved) is required. MEK is the best remover but use with caution because it is a carcinogen and will remove paint. Acetone is also a good choice
How much should I use?
Use sparingly. Apply just enough so that you can see it is present.
Is CorrosionX flammable?
No, but the aerosol product is combustible. In aerosols, the propellant is propane which is very flammable so caution must be used if it’s sprayed into an area where there may be sparks.
What is Polar Bonding?
This is an electrostatic attraction to metal surfaces by some of the components found in CorrosionX. Most people understand polarity because they see it all the time on battery terminals and know the colour codes that denote plus/minus. Some of the molecules present in CorrosionX have polarity and the law of attraction between positive and negatives applies.
What’s the shelf life?
The product has unlimited shelf life. Will not go hard, gunk up or develop a skin in open top containers.It will not evaporate.
Why does CorrosionX penetrate so efficiently?
This characteristic of CorrosionX is enhanced by the polar bonding along with capillary action. The product spreads until it reaches its minimum thickness and, at the same time, frees seized parts as oxides are softened up in the process. If you looked at mating surfaces under a microscope you would see “asperities” or surface roughness that appears to be similar to “microscopic mountains”, that allow creeping to take place no matter how tightly joined. These microscopic voids aid in allowing the product to travel.
Why doesn’t CorrosionX interfere with electrical connections?
CorrosionX will not interfere with electrical components even though it has an extremely high dielectric rating of 36,000 volts. The reason is that the film thickness at less than one mil is not sufficient to insulate. CorrosionX can actually enhance circuitry by lubricating switches and removing light corrosion at the same time
