Versatile descaling compositions for stainless steels, nickel alloys, and superalloys. Removes hot forming and anneal scales as well as residual lubricants such as glass, moly disulfide, etc. Appropriate for batch and continuous anneal and pickle applications.

Molten salt for removing silica-based refractory residues and sand from aluminum investment and sand castings.

Buffered pH control product used with Kastech AL750 salt for rinsing aluminum castings after salt bath cleaning.

General-purpose investment removal salt for easy-to-clean ceramic compositions and simple to moderately complex geometries.

Designed for more complex investment castings with preformed coring and/or more resistant ceramic compositions.

Removes residual casting sand, scale, and exposed surface graphite from cast iron components, including internal passages, and prepares surfaces for brazing and babbitting.

For very complex or low-reactivity ceramics, including quartz rod and tubing in castings. Also used to clear solidified glass from extrusion tooling such as fiberglass spinners.

Proprietary powdered organic acid blend used as a general-purpose cleaner for brightening and removing oxide from a wide variety of metals including carbon steel, stainless steel, red metal alloys, and the like.

Comparable to KGC but supplied in a liquid form for easy mixing and automated additions.

Proprietary descaling formulation supplied in bulk as a concentrated liquid solution, for automatic salt additions on high-production continuous anneal and pickle lines. Compatible with conventional bead or solid salt products when used with Koliquid addition systems.

A controlled-oxidizing salt for removing organic contaminants and transferring heat in thermochemical reactions.

A controlled-oxidizing salt for removing polymers from spinnerets, pumps, dies, and similar tooling.

A polymer-removal salt for spinnerets, pumps, dies, and similar tooling, with a lower melting point than No. 10 and the same stated operating range.

Formulated specifically to descale reactive refractory metals such as molybdenum and tungsten. Provides rapid and uniform reactivity to produce smooth, clean surfaces.

Versatile descaling composition for stainless steels, nickel alloys, and superalloys. Appropriate for batch and continuous anneal and pickle applications.

Provides complete and rapid paint stripping action for general maintenance of hooks, racks, and hangers. May be used in batch mode or Kontinuous^™ applications for automated rack stripping.

Mid-temperature catalyzed oxidizing salt for quick and complete removal of carbon and oils from engine components during remanufacture. Also strips cured paint and powder from a range of metal substrates.

Multi-metal paint and powder removal process for salvaging defectively coated components. Effective on cured paint, powder, and e-coat finishes. For ferrous, galvanized, zinc, magnesium, aluminum, and copper alloys; compatibility and finish depend on the metal, coating, and process conditions. Under controlled conditions, highly polished surfaces on compatible metals are virtually unaffected.
