All-State
Galvover® Low
Temperature Galvanizing Rod All
Heating Sources General
Characteristics A
special low temperature alloy developed for restoring the original corrosion resistant
properties of previously galvanized
metals. It goes on fast, smooth and bonds firmly. Typical
Applications Primarily
used to re-galvanize areas of sheet metal, angle iron, pipes and other structures
that have been welded, brazed
or cut with an oxy-acetylene torch. A favorite for use in the field to protect
previously ungalvanized parts as well
as to protect structures that are too large or too costly to disassemble and dip
in galvanizing tanks. Qualities
Working temperature
—600°F (316°C)
Corrosion resistance
—excellent
Procedures Chip
all slag from welds and wire brush loose scale, rust, paint, grease, dirt and
other contaminants from surface to
be protected. Bring base metal temperature to 600°F (316°C) and rub
Galvover® Rod over this area. No flux
is needed. Spread
the alloy by using a wire brush, cloth or paddle. Do not direct flame on the Galvover®
Rod but rather
let the heat from the base metal melt the alloy. Keep the base metal from overheating.
