OVERVIEW

Industrial-Grade Electrochemical Cleaning for Stainless Steel

The Walter Surfox-G (SKU: 54A066) represents a significant advancement in industrial weld cleaning technology, specifically formulated for fabrication shops that demand safety, compliance, and efficiency. As a pH neutral, salt-based electrolyte solution, Surfox-G is engineered to replace hazardous hydrofluoric and nitric acid pickling pastes, drastically reducing liability and safety concerns within the workplace. This 5-liter container provides a substantial supply for high-volume operations utilizing Surfox electrochemical cleaning systems.

For industrial suppliers and facility managers, the key value of Surfox-G lies in its regulatory compliance and versatility. It is NSF registered, making it the ideal choice for fabricating equipment destined for the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and medical industries where surface purity is paramount. The solution effectively removes heat tint from TIG welds on stainless steel while simultaneously dissolving free iron to promote the formation of the passive chromium oxide layer. This dual-action process ensures that finished products meet strict corrosion resistance standards without the environmental burden associated with traditional acid cleaners.

Logistically, the non-corrosive nature of Surfox-G simplifies storage and transport compared to hazardous goods. It produces minimal fumes during the cleaning process, improving air quality for operators and reducing the load on shop ventilation systems. By stocking the 5L format, shops can ensure continuous operation of their weld cleaning stations with a product that balances aggressive cleaning power with an environmentally responsible profile.

FAQ

Yes, Surfox-G is NSF registered, making it suitable for use on non-food contact surfaces in and around food processing areas, provided it is rinsed properly.

Surfox-G is specially designed for cleaning TIG welds on stainless steel. It is not intended for aluminum or other non-ferrous metals.

While Surfox-G is pH neutral, the cleaning process lifts contaminants. It is recommended to use a neutralizing fluid (like Surfox-N) and rinse with water to ensure the surface is completely clean and free of residues.

Unlike pickling pastes which use strong acids (hydrofluoric/nitric), Surfox-G uses a salt-based electrolyte technology that is pH neutral, non-corrosive, and produces significantly fewer fumes.

No, Surfox-G is an electrolyte solution designed specifically for use with electrochemical weld cleaning machines (like the Walter Surfox system) which provide the necessary electrical current.

Surfox-G is a stable salt-based solution. When stored properly in its original container, it has a long shelf life. Refer to the bottle for specific expiration dates.

It is primarily designed to remove heat tint and free iron (which causes rust). For heavy existing rust, mechanical removal might be needed before electrochemical cleaning.

Surfox-G is a non-corrosive, pH neutral formula, which generally makes it easier and safer to transport compared to acid-based hazardous materials.
