materials include VpCI ®-126 film and bags in many styles, CorShield ® VpCI ®-146 paper, and VpCI ® emitting materials such as BioPad ® and Cor-Pak ® 8-MUL Pouches. Some examples of how parts can be protected between manufacturing stages are as follows:
• Line a production bin with a VpCI ®-126 gusseted bag, fill with machined parts, and close the bag after each addition. Add a BioPad ® if extra protection is needed.
• Sandwich layers of brake disks or flywheels between pieces of CorShield ® VpCI ®-146 Paper inside a bin
• Cover racks / carts of gears with CorrCap™ VpCI ® Protective Covers( customized shower-cap style versions of VpCI ®-126 for easy removal and reapplication) and add BioPad ® as an extra source of corrosion inhibitors.
Similar materials can be used for easy protection during shipment.

Corrosion is a constant threat, but manufacturers have the privilege of choosing their weapons. Creative packaging with VpCI ® materials makes in-process corrosion protection much easier and quicker than using traditional rust preventatives by eliminating oils, greases, and the hassle of cleanup with harsh chemicals. Do you have a spot in your manufacturing process that could benefit from dry, easy to remove corrosion protection to improve your cycle time?
