Products Pro-Tek Rust Preventatives

Metalworking Rust Preventatives

When it comes to metalworking rust preventatives, the story of ValCOOL's mix of products is short and sweet. Our technology and marketing teams scanned the marketplace and identified the most common products sold by the most recognizable companies in this field. Our chemists developed clones of these product and then incorporated a twist in each product to give it a competitive advantage - maybe a longer lasting film, a more water-resistant coating, a 100% completely synthetic technology to remove all mineral oil, etc... Regardless of the metal, environment, length of protection, film thickness, application, or removal process, ValCOOL has a metalworking rust and corrosion inhibitor for your application.
