RalChem cleaning chemistry

Cleaning chemistry, matched to the contamination and to the machine that runs it.

The range

Five families, sized by how many formulations each one holds. Washing chemicals carry most of the range because a washing line is where the variety lives: a high-temperature bath, a low-foam spray and a jet cabinet all want different chemistry. Pick a segment to read that family on its own.

21 formulations

What they are made to do

None of these formulations publishes a number, but their claims repeat, and what repeats is a measurement: twelve of the twenty-one promise rust protection, ten work at pressure, six are low-foam. Pick a property to see which ones make it.

Water-Based Cleaners

Removes oils, greases, coolants and machining residues from industrial components, down to the low millipore values critical manufacturing asks for. Built for ultrasonic and spray systems, where a stable bath and a long sump life decide whether a line keeps running or stops to be drained.

Rust Removers & Derusters

Neutral pH chemistry that dissolves rust and oxidation without attacking the metal under it, so the surface comes back rather than being worn away. What is left behind is a temporary protective layer that holds off flash rust while the part waits for coating, plating, painting or assembly.

Runs in the equipment you have

Every RalClean formulation is compatible with the five systems below, so the chemistry follows the parts through the line instead of dictating which machine you buy.

Tell us what the parts are, what is on them and which machine you wash them in, and we will name the formulation and the concentration to start from.
