CorrosionX 90102 thin-film corrosion inhibitor aerosol
Available
CorrosionX 90102 is the standard, thin-film CorrosionX corrosion inhibitor, moisture displacer and lubricant, supplied as an aerosol. CorrosionX will not short sensitive circuits or interfere with electrical connections. Heavy Duty and Extended Duty (XD) are the heavier-film versions of the same inhibitor; this aerosol is the thin-film grade.
Where this product is used
- Marine: engines, generators, throttle and steering cables, deck hardware, battery terminals and wiring harnesses
- Electrical gear exposed to moisture: switches, circuit breakers, fuse holders and electric motors
- Industrial: bearings and bushings, pulleys, air and power tools, stuck valves, wire rope and cable
- Locks, hinges and door and window slides
- Automotive: frame and body, lugs, nuts and bolts, battery terminals
- Household, lawn and garden: tools, garage door openers, casters and tracks, fans and A/C units
Features
- Polar Bonding: attracted to metal, displaces moisture and electrolytes that accelerate corrosion
- Ultra-thin, self-healing film that seals metal from the environment
- 0.249mm four-ball wear scar (ASTM D4172) and 0.083 friction coefficient
- 1,320 hrs in a humidity cabinet (ASTM D1748)
- Compatible metals: iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminium, copper, brass and bronze

Using it
No directions for application, surface preparation, film build or re-application intervals.
Slight swelling or softening of butyl rubber. Some adhesives may soften and silicone sealants may swell slightly, so test a small sample first. Paints typically used on aircraft, automobiles and machinery are unaffected; polishes and some wax coatings may soften. It is compatible with acrylic, polyester, nylon, vinyl, Delrin, PTFE, Formica, polyethylene and polypropylene. It is absorbed into the fibres of most fabrics and will stain them. The stain is not permanent and can be removed with naphtha or mineral spirits.
Use outdoors or in a well-ventilated area, and do not spray on an open flame or other ignition source.
Storage and handling
An aerosol shelf life of 3 years.
Limits and safety
US SDS classification: Flammable Aerosols Category 1, signal word DANGER. Extremely flammable aerosol; contains gas under pressure and may explode if heated. Do not pierce or burn the container, even after use. Causes eye irritation, is harmful if inhaled and may cause skin sensitisation; aspiration into the lungs can cause severe injury. Transport classification: UN1950, Aerosols, flammable, Class 2.1. Heating above 180 °C over long periods degrades the resin. The military specification listings are US qualifications only. The SDS available is in US format.
Choosing the right option
This is the thin-film grade. CorrosionX XD Corrosion Inhibitor & Lubricant is the medium-build version between the two.
The same standard formulation is also sold as a liquid in CorrosionX 91002 Corrosion Inhibitor, Moisture Displacer & Lubricant Trigger Spray 473ml. The aerosol contains butane and propane propellant, so its figures (solids, specific gravity, VOC, flash point) differ from the liquid.
