FBC Anti-Corrosion Gel – Foil Grease for Wing Foils

The FBC Anti-Corrosion Gel is a specialist foil grease tailored specifically for hydrofoils and wing foils. It has been developed in collaboration with a renowned UK manufacturer to minimise the risk of bolts seizing while protecting against galvanic corrosion.

If you run aluminium and carbon components together — especially in saltwater — this is a simple but essential part of your setup routine.

Sold in 20ml tubes.

Who It’s For

• Wing foilers

• Kitesurf foilers

• Surf foilers

• Pump foilers

• Riders using aluminium masts or fuselages

• Anyone riding regularly in saltwater

If you’ve ever had to fight a seized mast bolt or seen corrosion building around connections, this product is designed to prevent exactly that.

Key Features

• Specialist foil grease formula designed specifically for hydrofoil systems

• Developed with a UK manufacturer for reliability and performance

• Prevents galvanic corrosion between aluminium and carbon components

• Reduces bolt seizure in mast, fuselage and wing connections

• Integrated lock-tight ingredient improves bolt security once tightened

• Allows easy release when adjustments or disassembly are needed

• Supplied in 20ml tube for easy application and storage

Real-World Feel

This isn’t just a basic grease.

The formula not only protects against corrosion but also improves the way bolts seat and hold. The added lock-tight ingredient enhances grip once secured, helping bolts stay firm during riding — particularly important on high-load foil setups.

At the same time, it doesn’t permanently bond threads. When it’s time to break your foil down for travel or maintenance, bolts release cleanly without drama.

In practical terms, it protects your investment and saves you from expensive or frustrating repairs later.

Fit / Setup Notes

• Apply a thin, even layer of foil grease to bolt threads and contact surfaces before assembly

• Particularly important on aluminium mast to carbon fuselage joins

• Reapply after full strip-down and cleaning

• Always rinse foil thoroughly with fresh water after saltwater use

One 20ml tube will last multiple full assemblies depending on usage.

Why We Stock It

At Northern Watersports, we regularly see corrosion-related damage that could have been avoided with proper prep during assembly.

We stock the FBC Anti-Corrosion Gel because it’s purpose-built for foils — not a generic workshop grease. The combination of corrosion protection and controlled bolt grip makes it ideal for modern wing foil and hydrofoil systems.

It’s a small cost that protects a significant investment.

FAQs

Is this just normal grease?
No. This is a specialist foil grease formulated to prevent galvanic corrosion between aluminium and carbon components while improving bolt security.

Will it stop my bolts coming loose?
It includes a lock-tight ingredient to enhance grip once secured, helping bolts remain firm while still allowing later removal.

Do I still need to rinse my foil after saltwater use?
Yes. Always rinse with fresh water after saltwater sessions.
