A Unique, Safer-To-Use Pickling Paste

Standard applications

The pickling paste, in this regard, restores stainless steel surfaces that have sustained damage during fabrication operations, such as welding, forming, cutting, and blasting. It eliminates weld oxides, the underlying chromium-depleted layer, and other defects that may lead to local corrosion. Avesta BlueOne™ Pickling Paste 130 is universal and suitable for brush pickling of welds and smaller surfaces on standard stainless steel grades like 304 (1.4301) and 316 (1.4401). For more challenging pickling operations, involving high-alloyed steel grades and low temperatures, we recommend using Avesta RedOne Pickling Paste 140 as a stronger alternative.

Features

• Our technology, ONE Technology, reduces NOx emissions by 70%, thereby preventing workers from inhaling dangerous acid fumes.
• Additionally, it results in higher yields and a 60% reduction in consumption, owing to its visible blue color and free-flowing consistency, which simplifies application.
• Moreover, it improves pickling results, offering a brighter surface with less discoloration.
