Following a series of independent tests, Corrocoat Zip-E has been approved to UK Defence Standard 80-97 – Internal Coating of Aviation Fuel Tanks.
The installation of a coating system is an effective way of protecting steel fuel tanks from corrosion and product contamination, minimising the risk of corrosion products getting into aviation fuel. Any coating used must not degrade the performance of the fuel which it is in contact with, nor must the fuel degrade the coating. Corrocoat Zip-E fulfils this brief providing durable protection. Achieving Standard 80-97 is a key milestone in our plan to increase our aerospace customer base.
