Product Characteristics
Thin-bodied corrosion preventative made from mineral oil raffinates, petroleum distillates and anticorrosive additives. BRANOtect Basic contains neither silicone nor wool fat. This product stands out due to its outstanding flow properties, good grease effect, and water displacement.
BRANOtect Basic is a versatile aid in dealing with metal parts. It builds on all metal surfaces an extraordinarily thin, and yet highly effective temporary protective film against corrosion. It crawls along the upper metal surfaces until into fits, fissures, crevices and pore and displaces the adherent moisture. It greases all sliding metal surfaces and movable parts.
Application and Dosage
Transportation protection for all metal surfaces, mass products, precision work pieces, structural components, machines, accessories, tools, measuring tools, contacting instruments, all movable parts.
As conservation between some working steps, for inprocess stock, e. g., store production, weekends, holidays, or closure. As mounting aid at work.
Because of its ability to creep, BRANOtect Basic can undo tight screws. Further application areas: household, vehicle servicing, vehicle maintenance. Apply through dip-and-drain, painting, or spraying. Let evaporate for 1-2 hours. Do not apply to hot parts.
BRANOtect Basic is to be used as described above (packaging/ protection of certain kinds of metal pieces). Otherwise, no responsibility for caused damages can be taken.
Range of Protection
BRANOtect Basic is suitable for all metals.
Duration of Protection
Depending on the climate, the contamination level of the air, and the pollution condition of the metal surface.
To be regarded as indicator:
in the right package, indoors 12 – 24 months
in the right package, in the open 6 – 12 months
outdoor, under the roof 4 – 8 weeks

Depreservation
Before other mechanical treatments, such as drilling, milling, revolving, and so on, is not necessary. However, the superfluous oil must be removed before a surface shaping (galvanising, varnishing). Moreover, all customary procedures in accord with the limits and requirements of the intended shaping process in the metal industry are appropriate.
Compatibility
BRANOtect Basic does not affect most plastics or lacquers. A compatibility test is recommended for bitumen and rubber products.
