Aviation
According to FAA Statistics, the average general aviation aircraft is more than 30 years old. As airplanes get older, the likelihood that they suffer from airframe corrosion increased dramatically. The symptoms may not be noticeable until the damage is done.

CorrosionX Aviation is globally recognised and trusted when it comes to the control and prevention of corrosion in aircraft.
The parrafin based product employs revolutionary Polar Bonding and Fluid Thin Film Coating (FTFC) technologies which cause it to stick to metal like a magnet. This drives out moisture and creates a thin, non-hardening, self-healing film which will creep into the hardest to reach cavity’s and voids. It is extremely resistant to wash-off and completely safe on rubber, neoprene, glass, plexiglass, all plastics, all paints, cabling and monofilament.
- Kills and prevents corrosion
- Long-lasting Polar Bonding Technology
- U.S. military proven to be more than 2X more effective* than other airframe corrosion prevention and control products
- Displaces moisture
- Penetrates and lubricates
- Self-curing Fluid Thin Film Coating (FTFC) technology
- Effective on all metals
- Safe on electronics
- Contains no waxes or silicones
- ZERO volatile organic content (other common airframe corrosion inhibitors contain as much as 5% VOC)
CorrosionX Aviation & Navguard Type IV are the only two products approved under the US Department of Defence MIL-PRF-81309H Type IV. This performance specification is for ultra-thin film, water-displacing corrosion preventive compounds. Products approved under this category must meet stringent criteria for corrosion protection (acid salt fog and neutral salt fog testing), max film thickness, max friction c-efficient and dielectric strength.

FAQ'S
Are there any harmful ingredients in CorrosionX ?
Not in the recommended application quantities. It’s one of the safest products of its kind. The SDS addresses this question further for corporate, military, or aviation concerns.
How does CorrosionX compare with wax coatings?
Wax CPC’S are designed to prevent rust/oxidation, not interrupt it. They can create problems by covering up the compromised areas, allowing it to grow underneath. Furthermore, it’s possible for moisture to penetrate through the wax and allow rust to form. Wax products are also extremely high in VOC.
Can I safely use the products for my helicopter?
You can use CorrosionX Aviation for any Aviation machines.
Can I use the products on circuit boards?
Circuit boards are a great place to apply CorrosionX . If they are corroded or have moisture causing problems, CorrosionX usually restores them.
Perfect for drones, VHF’s, fuse boxes, deck switches and aviation instrumentation.
Can you paint over CorrosionX?
No, it must be removed which isn’t easy because of polar bonding. A good solvent or “stream jenny” (if a large area is involved) is required. MEK is the best remover but use with caution because it is a carcinogen and will remove paint. Acetone is also a good choice
How much should I use?
Use sparingly. Apply just enough so that you can see it is present.
Is CorrosionX flammable?
No, but the aerosol product is combustible. In aerosols, the propellant is propane which is very flammable so caution must be used if it’s sprayed into an area where there may be sparks.
What is Polar Bonding?
This is an electrostatic attraction to metal surfaces by some of the components found in CorrosionX. Most people understand polarity because they see it all the time on battery terminals and know the colour codes that denote plus/minus. Some of the molecules present in CorrosionX have polarity and the law of attraction between positive and negatives applies.
What’s the shelf life?
The product has unlimited shelf life. Will not go hard, gunk up or develop a skin in open top containers.It will not evaporate.
Why does CorrosionX penetrate so efficiently?
This characteristic of CorrosionX is enhanced by the polar bonding along with capillary action. The product spreads until it reaches its minimum thickness and, at the same time, frees seized parts as oxides are softened up in the process. If you looked at mating surfaces under a microscope you would see “asperities” or surface roughness that appears to be similar to “microscopic mountains”, that allow creeping to take place no matter how tightly joined. These microscopic voids aid in allowing the product to travel.
Why doesn’t CorrosionX interfere with electrical connections?
CorrosionX will not interfere with electrical components even though it has an extremely high dielectric rating of 36,000 volts. The reason is that the film thickness at less than one mil is not sufficient to insulate. CorrosionX can actually enhance circuitry by lubricating switches and removing light corrosion at the same time
