How To Deal With Rust Spots On Stainless Steel Chains

Although it is a stainless steel chain, once our stainless steel chain is frequently exposed to damp environments or comes into contact with other corrosive liquids, etc., our stainless steel chain will have more or less rust spots. So how do we deal with the rust spots on stainless steel chains. Let's find a solution together with our Huasheng stainless steel chain editor.

The use of acid pickling paste is a common method to remove rust spots on stainless steel chains. The reason why it is so popular is because the surface smoothness of the chain is greatly improved, which in turn forms a passivation film on the surface of the chain. As a result, the service life of our stainless steel chains is also extended.

This rust removal method is suitable for most industries such as chemical machinery, food machinery, printing and dyeing machinery, pharmaceutical machinery, and pressure vessel manufacturing. We will also briefly explain the operation of using acid pickling paste. Firstly, apply our acid pickling paste to the surface of the stainless steel chain. Remember, at this time, we control the film thickness between 0.5-2mm and the time should be controlled at 3-10 minutes or more. If used in winter with low temperatures, below 0 ℃, or in areas with thick oxide skin, the time can be appropriately extended. During this processing, it is recommended to use a brush to wash the stainless steel chain several times. After the oxide scale on the surface of our stainless steel chain is completely removed, we can then use clean water, or lime water or alkaline water to better clean the stainless steel chain, in order to avoid rusting.
