CorPak® Tablets
Description
Cor-Pak® Tablets provide an extremely efficient dry method of protecting metals within a package. Using VpCI (Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor) technology, these easy-to-use tablets provide up to 24 months of corrosion protection for ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The VpCIs vaporize and then attach to all metal surfaces, reaching even recessed areas. The protective monomulecular layer does not need to be removed prior to processing or operation. In addition, Cor-Pak® Tablets are nitrite, phosphate, and silicate free, making them safe to use and apply.
