Description / Abstract: FORD ESA-M21P18-A, 2004 Edition, January 28, 2004 - CORROSION PROTECTIVE COATING, INORGANIC ALUMINUM BASECOAT - ORGANIC TOPCOAT ***TO BE USED WITH FORD WSS-M99P1111-A***

1. SCOPE

This specification defines the performance of a corrosion resistant protective coating which is suitable for both spray and dip/spin applications. The coating consists of an aluminum filled basecoat with a fluorocarbon topcoat which provides excellent corrosion resistance, adhesion and durability. It is a non- electrolytic type coating which is suitable for use with heat treated components (will not induce hydrogen embrittlement). Cure temperatures for the basecoat and topcoat range from 175 °C to 340 °C. This coating should not be used on parts which cannot tolerate these cure temperatures.
