  • Instantly removes weld discoloration
  • Cleans aluminum and stainless steel
  • NSF A1 registered for food-contact safety

Purpose and compatibility

This pH-neutral electrolyte solution instantly removes weld discoloration from stainless steel and aluminum surfaces. It is supplied in a 1.3 gal carboy and formulated for use with Surfox-G series equipment, including model 54D050. The fluid carries NSF A1 registration number 142985 for incidental food-contact areas.

Handling and safety profile

The clear liquid uses a sodium phosphate tribasic chemical base that avoids the hazards of traditional pickling pastes. No heated tanks or aggressive acids are required, so fume exposure and disposal complexity are reduced in normal workshop use. The 5 L container is designed for direct connection to compatible cleaning wands.

Deciding specification

The single figure that determines fit is the 1.3 gal capacity matched to Surfox-G hardware. Buyers needing a different volume or a solution approved for other metal alloys must select an alternative product.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1.3 gal carboy into a Surfox-G system without spilling electrolyte?

Place the carboy on a stable surface below the machine, connect the supplied pickup tube to the inlet fitting, prime the pump by running a short cycle, then secure the vent cap so the solution feeds evenly during weld cleaning.

What maintenance does the pH-neutral electrolyte require after repeated use on stainless steel and aluminum?

Filter the solution weekly to remove metal fines, top up with fresh 54A066 when the liquid level drops below the pickup tube, and replace the entire 5 L charge once cleaning speed noticeably slows.

At what point does the sodium phosphate tribased solution hit its limit during continuous weld cleaning?

The electrolyte reaches its saturation limit when discoloration removal slows and the liquid turns visibly cloudy, typically after several hundred weld passes depending on heat tint thickness.
