Corrosion can be an issue when handling, storing and shipping parts and equipment from sea to land. Factors such as temperature changes, contaminated air, sea salt and moisture can cause bare metal parts to rust before they arrive at their destination.
Tectyl water-based coatings provide a solution to prevent corrosion throughout the shipping cycle.
