WELC2005 - Cougartron 500ml Acid Pot with Lid

Professional Fluid Management for Weld Cleaning

The Cougartron Acid Container (500ml) is an essential accessory designed to streamline the electrochemical weld cleaning process. In industrial environments where stainless steel passivation and cleaning are routine, managing hazardous fluids safely and efficiently is paramount. This container is engineered specifically to withstand the corrosive nature of weld cleaning electrolytes, ensuring that the vessel maintains its structural integrity over prolonged exposure to acids that would degrade standard plastics.

One of the critical design features of this unit is its 80mm wide neck. This dimension is not arbitrary; it is calculated to accommodate the full range of weld cleaning brushes and wands used in the industry. Operators can easily dip their brushes into the fluid without the struggle of navigating narrow openings, which often leads to spills or damage to the brush bristles. This ergonomic advantage translates to faster workflow and less downtime spent refilling or cleaning up drips.

Safety in the handling of chemicals is addressed through the inclusion of a robust, airtight leak-proof lid. When the cleaning process is paused or completed for the day, the lid can be securely screwed on to prevent evaporation of the expensive cleaning fluid and to eliminate the risk of accidental spillage. This feature also allows for the safe transport of fluid from bulk storage areas to the specific workstation where the welding is taking place. Weighing only 0.068 kg when empty, it adds negligible weight to the operator's kit while providing a stable base that resists tipping.

By utilizing a dedicated acid container like the Cougartron 500ml model, facilities ensure compliance with best practices for chemical handling. It prevents the cross-contamination that can occur when using makeshift containers and ensures that the cleaning fluid remains pure and effective. Whether used for the primary cleaning acid or the subsequent neutralizing fluid, this pot is a durable, professional-grade solution for the modern metal fabrication shop.
