WINKEL WETOX 2 kg pickling gel for cleaning stainless steel welds

WINKEL WETOX 2 kg is a professional pickling gel designed for cleaning stainless steel surfaces after welding. It is used to remove weld discoloration, annealing oxides and rust marks that may appear on INOX parts after heat treatment.

Applications of WINKEL WETOX

WINKEL WETOX is intended for cleaning stainless steel welds and surfaces in production, maintenance and service work. It can be used on industrial tanks, installations, machine parts, stainless steel structures and industrial kitchen equipment.

The product is typically applied locally to welded areas where heat tint, oxide layers or surface rust marks are visible.

What makes WINKEL WETOX 2 kg different

The gel form makes brush application easier and helps apply the product precisely to the required area. This is useful for weld seams, heat-affected zones and surfaces that need local treatment.

WINKEL WETOX is ready to use. Before application, the manufacturer recommends mixing the product until it becomes homogeneous. Use a plastic or stainless steel rod for mixing, never an iron rod.

When to choose WINKEL WETOX

Choose WINKEL WETOX when stainless steel welds need to be cleaned after welding, annealing or heat treatment. It is suitable for plants working with stainless steel components that require a professional product for local weld cleaning.

How to use WINKEL WETOX pickling gel

Before application, the surface should be degreased and decontaminated to achieve a more uniform pickling effect. Mix the product until homogeneous and apply it with an acid-resistant brush.

The reaction time depends on the type of weld, material, temperature and contamination level. After the reaction time has elapsed, rinse the surface thoroughly with cold, clean water, preferably under pressure. After pickling, the manufacturer recommends passivation to increase corrosion resistance.
