F-LINE
The alternative to acid pickling.
Looking for a perfect alternative for the chemical pickling of your stainless steel and non-ferrous materials after welding? With the F-line from our Rebel One unitized abrasives range, welding discoloration can be removed in 1 step!
Pickling has disadvantages
To begin with, the application of acids in pickling is a
chemical process, which means that due to strict environmental regulations, you will probably have to call in an
external partner.
Pickling, of course, also requires thorough rinsing to repair the surface layer, and all-in-all, it costs quite some time and money.

The F-line range is an environmentally friendly, cost - effective and saving alternative to traditional pickling methods. It quickly removes welding discolorations and prevents caking for a longer service life and lower total grinding cost. It can also safely remove lacquers and coatings without damaging the underlying metal.

Advantages
Allow you to finish materials in a
simple
and
consistent
way.
Perfect, consistent and reproducible
finish
of the workpiece.
Does not affect the
geometry
of the workpiece: no grinding errors.
Cooler sanding than traditional abrasives: less chance of
discolouration.
Very
forgiving: a mistake isn’t punished immediately.
Also suitable for materials that generate extreme heat such as
titanium
and
cobalt
alloys.
Stainless steel safe (iron free).
VOC free.
Voordelen
Laat toe om materialen op een
eenvoudige
en
consistente
manier af te werken.
Perfecte, consistente en reproduceerbare
afwerking
van het werkstuk.
Heeft geen invloed op de
geometrie
van het werkstuk: geen slijpfouten.
Koeler schuren dan traditionele schuurmiddelen: minder kans op
verkleuring
.
Zeer vergevingsgezind
: een fout wordt niet meteen afgestraft.
Ook geschikt voor materialen die extreme hitte genereren zoals
titanium
en
kobaltlegeringen
.
Veilig voor roestvrij staal (ijzervrij).
VOC-vrij.
VOC free
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) stands for a group of substances including fuel and solvents. Upon vaporisation these substances cause global warming, acidification and are harmful to health. Solvent is commonly used in the production of unitised.
The entire Rebel One range, on the other hand, is 100% solvent-free, VOC free compliant and contains no polymers coming from bisphenol A.
Iron free
Iron free – stainless steel safe: no contamination.
F-line : aggressive and extremely flexible.

Tips & Tricks
Speed
Follow the recommended speed on the product label.
- Low speed = maximum efficiency and a better finish.
- High speed = excessive heat generation & premature wear.
Angle
Change angle in function of your application.
- Flat use = better finish.
- Used on side = increased aggressive action.
Pressure
Always apply medium pressure.
- Pressure too high = excessive heat generation & premature wear.
- Pressure too low = little or no result.
"Zigzag" movement
Use the up and down motion (zig zag) to remove the weld discoloration.
Maximum efficiency
For optimum efficiency, the pores of the finishing wheels must be opened regularly.
This can be done effortlessly with our sanding file
SV19030 in combination with the sanding sheet
706GR/24/V006.
