Description

Weldbrite utilises innovative Australian technology for the formulation of a high adhesion stainless
steel pickling gel for pickling applications It is used to remove the black oxide marks or burn scale left
during welding of stainless steel.

This product conforms to the international standard, ASTM A380-06. The standard practice for
cleaning, descaling & passivation of stainless steel parts, equipment & systems.

After use of Weldbrite the weld area should have the same look as the rest of the steel being used.
Weldbrite leaves a clean professionally finished stainless steel weld area, free from contamination.

Directions for use

Guides

1.

Clean the weld area carefully using a stainless-steel brush

2.

Roll or shake the drum of Weldbrite if possible for 30 seconds prior to opening the container to
ensure a smooth consistency, especially if the product has not been used for a long time

3.

After welding ensure the area to be pickled has sufficient time to cool below 40OC

4.

Apply the Weldbrite gel to the area to be cleaned, using the brush provided or with an acid
resistant spray pump and applicator. DO NOT PICKLE IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT

5.

Application times may vary depending on ambient temperature, the grade of stainless, surface
finish or the method of welding. On a hot rolled surface the pickling time may increase by 50%.
MIG welds may require longer pickling times than those obtained using covered electrodes.
Allow the pickling gel or solution sufficient time to react with the surface. With high ambient
temperatures or when longer pickling times are required it may be necessary to repeat the
process. Should the product dry on the surface wash down, dry and repeat the process

6.

To clean, rinse the surface with clean potable water. The best results are obtained by the use
of high pressure water jet or similar. Ensure the pickle residues are not left on the surface
