Less rust. Improved corrosion protection. Good barrier effect.

The challenge

Schechter corrosion protection leads to shorter operating times for your tools, components and measuring equipment

Aggressive media and chemical reactions
Influencing factors such as moisture, chemicals, cleaning agents or process media attack unprotected surfaces. Oxidative and electrochemical processes often cause initial damage after a short period of operation.

Structural degradation and loss of function
Corrosion weakens the material, changes the surface and impairs the functional geometry. Components lose their stability, sealing surfaces become leaky and precision components no longer achieve the required accuracy.

Rising maintenance costs
Corrosion-related damage makes more frequent repairs, component replacement and additional protective measures necessary. This increases maintenance costs and ties up resources.

Unplanned downtime and reduced availability
Progressive corrosion often leads to sudden functional failures or safety problems. Plant availability decreases, rejects increase and process costs rise noticeably.
