Prevent, remove, and repair aircraft corrosion with solutions from 3M.
Aircraft MRO corrosion prevention and control solutions
With an estimated 24%* of total aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul costs spent on corrosion management, it is no surprise that virtually all operators around the globe have a team of engineers dedicated to corrosion mitigation. Fluids, condensation, and chemical exposures may lead to corrosion. Whether corrosion is already present or you are trying to prevent it, 3M offers corrosion management solutions. Films, tapes, and surface protection systems do an excellent job of preventing corrosion by keeping fluids at bay to get the aircraft ready for service.

Aircraft entryways, galleys, lavatories, and cargo compartments are vulnerable to frequent sources of moisture which can lead to corrosion. The resulting corrosion damage can weaken the entire sub-floor structure and result in costs up to $100,000 per aircraft, in addition to downtime. How can 3M help?
-
- Decrease in repair spend of up to $27k per aircraft
