Product Information

Ardrox AV40 is designed for use in areas of the aircraft exposed to elevated temperatures. Typical applications include engine components, pylons and cowlings.

Ardrox AV40 will withstand continuous temperatures up to 150°C (302°F) and short term exposure to temperatures up to 210°C (410°F). It is colourless and can be applied to aircraft exterior surfaces exposed to high temperatures, for example adjacent to auxiliary power unit (APU) exhaust systems where hot gases are expelled.

Ardrox AV40 can be applied by dipping, brushing or spraying. For maximum penetration capability and the most effective corrosion inhibiting performance, spray application is recommended.

The coating should be applied at 60 to 100 µm / 2.4 – 4 mils wet thickness. Movable parts should be masked before treatment.
