Eck Complete Corrosion Protection

Meet Eck: Austin Hardware’s corrosion preventative coating engineered to protect equipment from costly damage caused rust and various types of corrosion. Extensively tested and made in the USA, Eck works by creating a protective barrier between dissimilar metals like steel and aluminum, which left untreated would corrode and shorten the equipment’s life.
Why is Eck Different?
- Eck is formulated to outperform industry-standard silicone products, washers/rubber spacers and other corrosion preventers. These other products are not effective solutions because they do not actually prevent the electrolytic reaction that causes corrosion.
- Eck is tough on corrosion but will not ruin your paint job. Three of the world’s largest commercial paint manufacturers endorse the use of Eck for corrosion prevention in industries like automobile and truck manufacturing.
- Not only is Eck effective on all types of metals, but it is also perfect for use on electrical connectors.
- It comes in squeeze tubes, aerosol, and quart cans, so it is versatile and meets any project’s needs.

Why eck works
Eck has been meticulously lab tested for 4,000 to guarantee ultimate protection against corrosion. The result? A revolutionary formula you can trust to extend equipment life and save money in the long run.
Galvanic corrosion occurs when two dissimilar metals are fastened together and are both exposed to a common electrolyte. Since the two metals have different electrical potentials, one metal will erode faster and a costly chemical reaction ensues.
Eck stops this process in its tracks by creating a barrier between the two metals, using Zinc dust and Zinc powder as the sacrificial metal. By absorbing corrosive energy, Eck prevents all types of degradation, including:
- Galvanic corrosion (dissimilar metal corrosion)
- Magnesium chloride corrosion
- Calcium chloride corrosion
- Hardware/fastener seizing
Eck's Endless Applications
Wherever dissimilar metals are placed next to each other, a corrosion barrier like Eck is necessary. This means there is an endless list of applications and reasons to keep Eck in your toolbox.
