1. Sealing of corroded welding seams
Leakages of welding seams of an empty oil storage tank have been repaired with
UltraMetal Steel.
UltraMetal Steel was applied on the exterior wall after thorough cleaning and roughening of the surface.
Extreme protection is achieved by the following procedure with Dichtol and UltraMetal Steel:
The cleaned and sand blasted welding seams are
first impregnated with Dichtol which penetrates in the porosities (without pressure or vacuum) thus
sealing them inside; after curing of Dichtol
the remaining spot is then UltraMetal Steel applied.
Example 1:
The requirements were:
longterm corrosion protection, resistance to gasoline, resistance to temperature cycles between –30 and
60°C.
The pressure resistance to 10 bar was checked by an independent test institute.
