What are the advantages of Gun-Kote SCK?
Gun-Koted weapons can be fired dry: in contact situation proper lubrication of weapons is not always possible. Secondly dirt and grit attracted by oil is a major cause of weapon stoppages. Gun-Kote SCK prevents these problems.
Gun-Kote SCK is a complete barrier to all forms of corrosion and can be applied to every part of the weapon – constant maintenance of weapons in the field to prevent corrosion by cleaning and oiling is extremely costly in man-hours and materials. The chemical blackening now used is at the outset. A form of rust and the alternative phosphating which is also currently used offers very minimal corrosion protection. Acid corrosion caused by detonation debris deposits are also a major problem. Corrosion caused by storage in damp, humid is a serious problem which is currently overcome by expensive oiling, greasing and packaging material. Gun-Kote SCK alleviates these problems.
