Protecting Your Sulfinert®-Treated Products
Cleaning Tips
When cleaning a treated part, rinse with a solvent that will dissolve probable
surface contaminants (i.e., use a nonpolar solvent to remove hydrocarbon
contaminants, or a more polar solvent to remove more active contaminants).
Avoid using cleaners containing abrasives as they can scratch the layer. Mild
sonication may assist in contaminant removal, but do not oversonicate—this
could damage the layer. Solids can be removed with a soft nylon bristle brush
using light pressure.
Caution!
Do not use basic solutions or soaps with pH>8. Do not steam clean
Sulfinert®-treated components or lines as this could damage the layer.
Preventing Galling
As with any threaded fitting, galling may occur when assembling two treated
parts. To prevent thread damage, use a PTFE tape.
A scouring pad can be used to remove coating from the threads to reduce
galling.
Ferrules used in compression fittings should not be coated—leaks may occur.
Troubleshooting
Under normal use, your treated items should deliver outstanding performance
for years to come. However, effective lifetime is dependent on the severity of
the environment. Factors that can reduce performance are:
• Contamination
—Failure to properly clean the surface can allow increased
surface activity. If performance changes, thoroughly clean the surface and
inspect the layer for damage.
• Erosion
—Contact with abrasives can accelerate surface wear.
• Bases
—Contact with a base (pH 8 or higher) can accelerate deterioration
of the layer.
Surface finish and color should stay consistent throughout the life of the
product. Changes in the finish or color may indicate a partial loss of the layer.
To prevent further loss, ensure no exposure to bases or abrasives.
