SOCOPAC 65H
> LONG TERM, SUPER PENETRATING, WATER DISPLACING, CORROSION INHIBITING COMPOUND FOR AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES
SOCOPAC 65H is very effective in reducing corrosion-linked maintenance costs; it gives excellent water-displacement and long lasting anticorrosion protection. This combination of properties helps to increase the life and reliability of materials, preserve structures and maintain the appearance and quality of new materials. The following examples illustrate the special properties of SOCOPAC 65H.
- New concept 2 in 1:
- very high water displacement performance with continuing water repellence in service
- long lasting corrosion protection
- The dual function reduces the number of applications required; replacing separate products for water displacement and long term corrosion protection. For example SOCOPAC 25H and SOCOPAC 50S.
- It can be used on a large range of painted or unpainted metals (steels, aluminium and alloys, copper, titanium, cadmium, magnesium, etc.).
- The dry finish of the film makes handling pieces possible.
- Improved safety in use due to the high flash point.
- Easy, optimised application with comfortable conditions in the absence of mist during spraying. (Using low pressure spraying equipment).
- SOCOPAC 65H provides thorough protection for materials, spare parts or assemblies, in the worst climatic conditions making them absolutely water repellent and forming a very efficient barrier against all agents responsible for corrosion (water, oxygen, acids, alkalis and salts from industrial emissions, acid rain, tropical atmospheres, etc.).
- very high water displacement performance with continuing water repellence in service
- long lasting corrosion protection
- reduction of the number of applications

SOCOPAC 65H can be applied by dipping, brush or by spraying (classic spray gun, airless/airmix system), or low pressure spray system, which allows optimisation of application and users' comfort (no mist during spraying, fine regulation of flow, absence of runs and fat edges)
For example:
Low pressure application equipment from KREMLIN with M21 gun for flat surfaces, guns with fine nozzles and curved extensions at 45° and 135° for more difficult areas.
SOCOPAC 65H is also available in aerosol.
REMOVAL
- Types HYSO, SOCOSOLV or DIESTONE (used undiluted at ambient temperature): apply the produtct by swabbing, low pressure spraying or by dipping. Let the solvent impregnate the coating and carry out a second application if necessary in restricted access areas.Recover the effluent from the lowest point by emptying or suction.
- HYSOMUL MC, SOCOSOLV A3582 (used undiluted at ambient temperature): apply the product by low pressure spraying or by dipping. Once the coating is impregnated, wash with plenty of water, preferably heated to 80° C (176° F). Recover the effluent from the lowest point by emptying or suction.
- In all cases, consult the technical data sheets of the relevent products. Take the same measures as painting if spraying on the internal sides of a compartment.
APPLICATION METHOD
All the equipment usually employed for cleaning under pressure can be used, provided the instructions on the product technical data sheets are respected and the situation is appropriate.
