Rust-preventive fluid is weldable

Lincoln Electric’s RP6™ is an oil-based fluid that provides up to six months of indoor corrosion protection by preventing rust on ferrous metals without adversely affecting the welding process.

The rust preventive is suitable for welding applications in heavy fabrication, automotive, steel storage, agriculture, and applications in which raw materials may be subject to corrosion before welding.

After the fluid is applied, there is no need to grind, shotblast, or chemically clean the joint before welding.
