VpCI® Metalworking Products

Cutting fluids, rust preventatives and in-process treatments that protect parts between machining operations — so work-in-progress never rusts on the shop floor.

What These Products Do

Freshly machined metal is at its most vulnerable — bare, warm and often damp with coolant. Cortec® VpCI® metalworking products build corrosion protection directly into machining, grinding, forming and washing operations, protecting the workpiece and the machine tool without extra process steps.

Because VpCI® protection is built into the fluid, parts come off the machine already protected for interoperational storage and transfer — eliminating flash rust, rework and rejected parts.

BioCorr® Rust Preventative

Ready-to-use, water-based rust preventative that is a biobased alternative to oil-based products. Leaves a thin, dry, non-greasy film that protects parts in storage and transit — with no oily residue to clean off before the next operation.

Cortec VpCI®-337 Fogging Fluid

VpCI®-337 Fogging Fluid

Water-based corrosion inhibitor that is fogged or sprayed into packaging, containers, tanks and void spaces before sealing. The VpCI® vapour reaches every internal surface, making it ideal for preserving large or complex volumes that cannot be wrapped.
