Bilt Hamber Dynax S50 5L Jerrycan

Dynax-S50 is a high-performance anti-corrosion wax that provides exceptionally long-lasting protection to steel surfaces. It creeps into welded seams and seals surface defects. Dynax-S50 forms a soft, brown, wax-like film that self-heals in the event of disruption. It is also able to arrest existing corrosion and to provide long-term protection to pre-corroded and corrosion-free surfaces.

Dynax-S50 has been proven to substantially outperform competitive material in salt-spray trials under conditions of ASTM B117.

Dynax-S50s soft-film is optimised for enclosed cavities where extremely corrosive conditions develop. Dynax-S50 is also recommended for protection of valuable machinery and components in transit, machine tools, moulds etc. Dynax-S50 can be removed using suitable solvent. Dynax-S50 is not formulated for prolonged exposure to ultra-violet (UV) light.

The advanced metal seeking anti-corrosion molecules which form Dynax-S50 are able to displace water, so even damp surfaces can be protected, these same molecules arrest and prevent corrosion even on already rusty surfaces and provide remarkable self-healing abilities if the film is damaged. Whilst Dynax-S50 is primarily a cavity rustproofing compound its also able to prevent corrosion in a multitude of mud traps and water collecting voids. Dynax-S50 has been used with superb results to protect voids and cavities in steel boats, vessels, offshore installations and other steel structures subject to severely corrosive atmospheres.

Dynax-S50 is designed to protect steel surfaces in extreme conditions. Its well known that vehicle cavities are subject to a wide-range of corrosive environments, from salt spray to high humidity, heat, fresh water and freezing. The cavity wax chosen must cope with all these variables and continue to provide the necessary protection maintaining the structural integrity, safety, and value of the vehicle. Its common for manufacturers of cavity waxes to quote salt-spray results in hours for their cavity waxes and while the salt-spray test is severe its been shown that waxes with very good salt-spray performance can rapidly deteriorate when the environment changes, for example after a period of constant salt-spray they swell become bloated and detach from the surface in an atmosphere of high humidity alone. Dynax-S50 has been proven to provide outstanding salt-spray protection and continuing protection in changing conditions with no swelling or detachment whatsoever.

• Class-leading long-term protection for cavities, voids, chassis, doors, mud traps machinery, boats etc.
• Resistant to changing conditions found in cavities, others are not.
• Self-healing, protects even if film is cut.
• Clings to vertical surfaces.
• Displaces moisture.
• Kills existing corrosion.
• Deeply penetrates flanges and folded seams.
• Easy to use atomises superbly.
• Low odour.
• See-through coating with brown tint.
• Provides lubrication.
• The 5ltr Jerrycan is for use with your own spray equipment.

Penetration Tests:

If you decide to treat your car or vehicle to additional corrosion treatment its important to select a cavity wax that can penetrate into welded flange seams these are the areas proven to be the first to corrode in fact the Swedish Corrosion Institute conducted a thorough investigation into vehicle corrosion by sawing open the bodies of 845 collision-damaged cars manufactured between 1994 and 1997, the corrosion observed in the flanges and seams resulted in the recommendation that even on cars with reasonably good cavity fluid treatment applied at the factory a complementary treatment be used within 3-4 years of manufacture. This investigation also proves, despite popular belief, that modern cars just like classic and vintage ones require after market rust proofing.

Dynax-S50 has a high solids content over 50%, its this content that forms the anti-corrosion coating, and whilst other high solids materials dont penetrate sufficiently Dynax-S50 creeps by capillary action deeply into seams, flanges and folded edges, in side-by-side trials Dynax-S50 has been proven to creep significantly further than other cavity waxes, some with solids contents as low as 25%.

How To Use:

Use a brush, roller or spray to apply Dynax-S50. Atomisation into enclosed cavities and voids is recommended to ensure thorough coverage of all surfaces. Dynax-S50 contains highly polar corrosion inhibitors that are able to displace surface moisture; very wet surfaces should be pre-treated using Bilt-Hamber Ferrosol.

Warm the container (loosen cap first) by standing in a hot water bath will further reduce viscosity and is beneficial where deep crevice protection is required.
Ensure that cavities are left unclosed for a period of 48 hours to allow the escape of carrier materials before bunging or stopping.

Dynax-S50 will provide excellent protection at a wide-range of film thickness aim to achieve a uniform dry-film thickness of around 50 microns. The tolerance of the material to maintain protection at very low film thickness makes Dynax-S50 the ideal choice where surface inspection is not easy or where uniform coatings are simply not possible.
