Detroit, MI-based Weld-Aid Products has released its newest
product, 1st Zinc--a 95% zinc-rich coating designed to provide the
highest level of corrosion protection for metal in cold-galvanizing
applications.
1st Zinc joins Weld-Aid Product's longstanding family of
anti-spatter products for the welding industry and builds upon the
company's tradition of providing high-quality products for metal
protection during fabrication processes. The product was developed for
use on metal pans and assemblies as either a protective primer coat to
be later top-coated or as a standalone coating.
1st Zinc meets the requirements listed in the ASTM-780, ASTM-D-520
(for zinc content), Fed. Spec. DOD-P-21035A (Galvanizing Repair Spec),
MIL-P-26915A (USAF Zinc Dust Primer), and SSPC-Paint 20 (Specification
for Zinc-Rich Primer) specifications. The product is available in both
aerosol cans and bulk gallons.
