HI-GRADE #168-UC SOLVENT CLEANER is
designed for use in removing oils & grease metal from metallic parts & components.
The #168-UC is comprised of a chlorinated solvent not contained on the list of ozone
depleting chemicals. Use of this solvent does not violate the mandates set forth in the
CLEAN AIR ACT or the MONTREAL PROTOCOL. Hence urgent needs have been felt the introduction
of substances for replacing 111 TRICHLOROETHANE.
Benefits
- Dependability
- Excellent stability
- Effectively removes oils and grease
- Capable of adsorbing large amounts of contaminants yet still
provide excellent cleaning
- Cleaning of machined metal parts & moulded metal parts.
- CFC FREE non flammable product
- Distilled for re -use
- Economy
The #16i3-UC can be used in vapour
degreasers, ultrasonic cleaners, or used at room temperature for immersion cleaning.

This solvent is compatible with all
metals - The compatibility" data given is for long-term, constant contact of the #l
68-UC solvent cleaner with the material in question. Tests should be conducted to
determine the compatibility of all materials exposed to the cleaning process.
