Aerospace and Aircraft Corrosion Protection

SuperCORR A is an advanced corrosion protection spray that was originally designed to prevent electrical and electronic components from systems failures caused by corrosion. Developed for the U.S. Air Force and within strict safety specifications (complies with MIL-DTL-87177B), it has been the proven standard for avionic corrosion protection within MROs (maintenance, repair and operations) and OEMs (overhaul and original equipment manufacturers). It’s unique ability to displace water and provide a performance enhancing level of corrosion protection has led to it being used in many other applications and industries worldwide.

Specially Formulated Anti-Corrosive Inhibitors

The ultimate defence against corrosion

Contains extremely long-lasting, specially formulated and proprietary anti-corrosive inhibitors that provide a superior lubrication coefficient and protect components against moisture, wear, general and fretting corrosion, surface static electricity, corona, and other electro migration problems. Corrosion inhibitor for electronic switches, PCBs, contacts, connectors and other electronic and electrical parts.
Prevents the corrosive damage to electronics and other surfaces caused by exposure to the Sulfur dioxide (SO₂), Nitrogen dioxide (NO2), Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S), Ammonia (NH3), Chlorine based gases (Cl2) based gases in Class III mixed gas tests as well as the thermal decomposition by product of HFC-227ea used in fire suppression systems, Hydrogen Fluoride (HF).
Prevents deterioration and contamination on all surfaces of electronic and electrical equipment and mechanical close tolerance moving components.
SuperCORR A is hydrophobic, that is it repels water and forms a “self-healing” ultra-thin film barrier that prevents moisture from coming into contact with the coated electronic components. It will not only prevent moisture from coming in to contact but will displace moisture that is there already.

Case Studies

Above: Aircraft electrical connectors

The flexing of the connecting cables allows sufficient movement between the metal surfaces of the connecting pins to produce fretting corrosion which reduces, interrupts or produces failures in supply.

While maintained aircraft can fly for decades, corrosion is an ever constant threat to the integrity of the aircraft. It is true that older airplanes need more attention and maintenance, an aircraft’s age has not been considered a safety factor.
A pilot’s training, qualifications, and fatigue are by far larger safety issues than the age of the aircraft, as long as the aircraft is undergoing frequent and prescribed maintenance checks. Checking for and preventing corrosion has be a very serious part of any maintenance program as well as that of the pilot doing his pre-flight inspections.
The thinning of an aircraft’s internal structure integrity and its outside aluminum skin by corrosion is one of the factors that reduce the life of aircraft. Corrosion is not only a very expensive problem it is also a very dangerous one.

Military and civil industry approval to use SuperCORR A on the F-16, C-130, P-3 Orion, and the F-15, Boeing-737’s, DHC-6 Twin Otter, Bell Helicopters, Bombardier BD-700 series and Bombardier Challenger 300/350, Learjet 45, Legacy 650, Hawker- Beechcraft, and Northrop-Grumman to name but a few.
SuperCORR A  is being used at BAE Systems, Honeywell and Raytheon Systems to prevent corrosion from causing avionic, electronics, and electrical systems and components failures.
