Tectyl 846-K-19 is a solvent cutback, wax based, general purpose, corrosion preventive compound which meets the performance requirements of Military Specification MIL-PRF-16173D, Grade 4, Class 1. Tectyl 846-K-19 is excellent for long term protection of metallic surfaces against corrosion in indoor and outdoor exposure during domestic and international shipments. Tectyl 846-K-19 is recommended for protection of general machinery, machine rolls/tools, automatic parts, dies, tubing, and spare parts. Tectyl 846-K-19 cures to a dark amber colored, waxy, translucent, firm film.
Benefits and application considerations
- Superior Protection At the recommended DFT, Tectyl 846-K-19 will protect against corrosion during storage, domestic and overseas transport.
- Processing Tectyl 846-K-19 is easy to apply and easy to remove, when no longer needed.
- Economical With a DFT of only 50 microns, Tectyl 846-K-19 can protect a large surface with just a little amount of the product.

Surface preparation
The maximum performance of Tectyl 846-K-19 can be achieved only when the metal surfaces to be protected are clean, dry and free of rust, oil and mill scale. CorPro recommends a substrate temperature of 10-35 °C at the time of product application.
Application
Tectyl 846-K-19 is formulated to be used as supplied. CorPro recommends that the ambient and product temperature be 10-35 °C at the time of product application. Due to its composition Tectyl 846-K-19 can be subject to postproduction viscosity changes and/or wax sedimentation. Always ensure homogeneous consistency by agitation before use. If the product thickens due to cold storage or loss of solvent during use, thinning with max. 1-2% Tectyl 150 is possible to get the desired consistency. Incorrect thinning will affect film build, dry time and product performance. Tectyl 846-K-19 can be applied by airless spray, low pressure air spray or brush. Details on application can be found in the application chart.
Removal
Tectyl 846-K-19 can in the wet phase be removed with Tectyl Biocleaner, Tectyl 150 or low-pressure steam. If dried and cured Tectyl 846-K-19 can also be removed with Tectyl Biocleaner or Tectyl 150.
