Steel Plant Celebrates 20 Years without Product Corrosion due to WEDOLiT® AS 2603
The customer is a globally recognized mechanical engineering plant specializing in the manufacturing of large steel parts for industrial concrete products. The company serves markets in all climates across the world, including the United States, Canada, Vietnam, Australia, and the United Arab Emirates.
THE CHALLENGE
The plant ships and stores large steel workpieces (ranging in size from 10-15m²) overseas through incredibly diverse climates and environments, with temperatures ranging from as low as -30°C to as high as 40°C and above.

Workpieces must be treated with an anti-corrosion solution to prevent degradation while transported and stored in extreme temperatures. The customer’s previous solution was unsuccessful, resulting in high damage rates during shipping and issues with pitting corrosion from long-term storage.
THE SOLUTION
In 1999, the customer switched to using WEDOLiT® AS 2603, a solvent-containing, high-protection waxdispersion fluid ideal for providing corrosion protection for steel parts during overseas transport. After forming a protective film on the metal surface, the anti-corrosion agent protects against atmospheric contaminants such as dissolved gases.

AS 2603 was formulated with an innovative thixotropic solution designed to provide protection for extended periods without risking corrosion from high or low temperatures. As a universal solution, it was also compatible with the customer’s existing spraying units.
THE RESULTS
Since switching to WEDOLiT AS 2603 more than two decades ago, the customer has been able to transport large workpieces to every continent and type of climate in the world without corrosion issues. The solution also prevented corrosion on parts stored in suboptimal conditions for extended periods.

In the two decades since converting to WEDOLiT AS 2603, the customer has tested 42 competitor products but still hasn’t found anything better than or even comparable to this Master Fluid Solutions’ product.

Preventing corrosion has allowed the customer to drastically increase profits by mitigating costly workpiece damage, replacement, and reshipping. As the customer launches new production lines, estimates indicate that current revenues will increase by 100 percent.
THE NUMBERS
  • 20+ years of overseas shipping and storage in extreme temperatures with no corrosion
  • AS 2603 proved to perform better than 42 competitor products
  • Estimated 100 % increase in revenues due to cost-savings from well-protected parts
