Chemetall to Highlight Non-Phosphate Gardobond AP® 9811 Aluminum Finishing and Anodizing Technologies at FABTECH 2016
“We’re excited to return to FABTECH in 2016 and share Chemetall’s outstanding “Cut It. Clean It. Coat It. Control it. Conserve It. ®” product portfolio - developed to improve overall process efficiency and thru-put, performance, and to reduce operational costs required in today’s surface finishing and fabrication industries,” said Suresh Patel, Business Manager, Surface Treatments.
Chemetall will highlight its non-phosphorous pretreatment for 3-stage spray washers. Gardobond® AP 9811 is a liquid, phosphorus-free, dry-in-place pretreatment that enhances the performance of subsequently-applied organic liquid and powder coatings. Multi-metal Gardobond® AP 9811 reacts with steel, aluminum and zinc substrates to enhance paint adhesion and corrosion resistance properties. Gardobond® AP 9811 is free of any regulated heavy metals. A minimum of three stages is required for this high performing product which is compatible with mild steel equipment. This easy-to-use product may help improve customers’ cycle time, yield, and capacity utilization.
