SKF Introduces Krown Products To Its Specialty Parts Offering For The U.S. Heavy Duty Aftermarket

The Krown product line provides solutions to protect vehicles from road debris, salt and rust.

ELGIN, Ill. – SKF is now offering a complete line of Krown
products, which include a line of rust protection products, and a line
of cleaning products and tools for light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles.
The Krown product line provides solutions to protect vehicles from road
debris, salt and rust.
 
The
rust protection products available include Krown Corrosion Inhibitor,
Fast Acting Penetrant, Salt Eliminator and Chain Lubricant. Each product
is available in 1 gallon, 5 gallon or 55 gallon drums, as well as an
easy-to-apply aerosol can. Additionally, a point-of-purchase display
offers a visually appealing way to showcase the entire rust protection
offering. The display holds 48 aerosol product containers, 12 each of
the Corrosion Inhibitor, Fast Acting Penetrant, Salt Eliminator and
Chain Lubricant.
 
Products available for cleaning the body, engine and/or undercarriage of
heavy-duty vehicles include Krown Heavy Duty Pressure Wash, Alumabrite,
Power Kleen and Known Wash. Cleaning tools including foam guns, spray
rods, pumps, spray guns, drop-in fluid pumps, rubber water lines and
small and large portable cleaning systems are also available and can be
purchased individually or as a set.
 
“Krown has developed a superior, environmentally-safe line of products
that fill an important need for many of our customers,” said Doug Fike,
product manager, heavy duty, for SKF.  “We are pleased to include Krown
rust protection and cleaning products to our speciality parts offering
for the heavy duty aftermarket.”
 
Additional product information:
 
Krown Corrosion Inhibitor protects heavy duty and light truck body,
paint, chassis, beds and plow attachments in grueling environments. The
corrosion inhibitor contains no solvents, which are hazardous to the
environment and potentially dangerous to the user. It also will not
damage paint, plastic, rubber or electrical equipment (dielectric
strength 50kv).
 
The Corrosion Inhibitor is commonly used on battery terminals, starter
wires, pin connectors, moving parts, locks, live bottom or salt spreader
chains and wheel plates. The inhibitor is highly resistant to
temperature change and remains active despite washing or road wash.
 
Krown Fast Acting Penetrant penetrates and loosens seized and rusted
mechanical parts. A solvent-free product, it remains on surfaces,
lubricating and protecting parts from rust. It is primarily used in
locks, key cylinders, hinges (doors/trucks/latches), battery
terminals/plug-ins, chains, brake cables, power antennas, sliding doors
and windows. The penetrant is safe on all metals and electrical systems.
It breaks through rusted parts to quickly and easy dismantle mechanical
systems.
 
Krown Salt Eliminator is a unique protection product that makes removing
salty deposits easy. This proprietary formulation dissolves salt
quickly, by breaking the bond between chloride and metal while
preventing the reforming salt residue after cleaning is complete. It was
developed for the heavy-duty market but can also be used on cars, vans,
buses and bikes and is safe to use on plastic, rubber and vinyl. The
Salt Eliminator contains no solvents, NPEs or VOCs and easily rinses to a
beading, waxy finish.
 
Krown Chain Lubricant is a solvent-free application that enhances chain
life and reduces wear and friction. It can reduce corrosion and keep
debris from sticking to chain metal. Specifically engineered for
high-heat applications, it excels in harsh, high-speed and
high-contamination environments with heavy loads. It is a strong
preventative application for roller chains, small pitch chains, conveyor
chains, wire rope, high heat applications and open gears. It is also
food grade approved throughout North America.
 
A product flyer and MSDS sheets are available for download here.
