Corrosion Inhibiting Effect

Benefits of Water Reamer

Water ReamerWater Reamer● Dissolves and removes rust and buildup that

forms in mold cooling pipes because of impurities in source water.

● Restores mold cooling efficiency back to normal.

● Resolves problems associated with readily corroded materials.

● Rust and impurities in the water are grabbed, detached from pipe linings and dissolved by the chelate effect.

● A primary rustproofing film forms on cleaned pipe linings once dried.

● No need to rinse in water or neutralize cleaned pipes.● Cooling pipes can be cleaned without disassembling molds.● Prevents rust and buildup of impurities in source water when used with new

molds.● Prevents cleaned cooling pipes from clogging by not generating sludge.● Fully penetrates cooling pipes of complex shape.● Does not generate dust.

Good news for overseas factories!

Removes rust and scale!

Decreases in mold cooling efficiency cause molding defects.

Features and Usage of Water ReamerUsers can easily dissolve and remove rust and buildup of impurities found in source water, by simply connecting the mold cooling pipe to the Water Reamer and circulating the specified cleaning solution through the pipe.

Rustproofing Effect

Rustproofing and Cleaning Strength of Water Reamer

■ Mold surface temperature 60 min after molding start

■ Mold cooling water flowrate

Before cleaning 49˚C → After cleaning 38˚C

Before cleaning 1500 mL/min → After cleaning 6100 – 6400 mL/min
