In 1985 Ti-Coating, Inc. introduced a process that would revolutionize the cleaning of engine run aerospace gas turbine superalloy components. This process, called Vapor Phase Fluoride Ion cleaning or HFIC cleaning, chemically reacts to remove metal oxides and fluorides from the surface of these components. This chemical cleaning allows the repair technician to achieve a superior high temperature braze joint and has become an indispensable step in the braze repair process. On new components, HF Cleaning assures a successful braze the first time. This means when there is no time to braze it twice or when the alloy’s composition is too critical for multiple heatings, HF cleaning is an excellent choice as a pre-braze preparation.
