CLEANER | TECHNICAL DATA SHEET LAC 105 ALKALINE CLEANER FOR FERROUS AND NON-FERROUS

LAC 105 is a liquid-based, mildly alkaline cleaner used primarily in industrial applications for in-process cleaning of ferrous and non-ferrous . Using the latest additives for detergency and wetting available, LAC 105 offers exceptional cleaning properties for the removal of most industrial contaminants, particularly smut and fine particulate entrained into the substrate’s surface. Residual films of LAC 105 provide excellent protection for parts in short-term storage

COMPATIBLE METALS • Extremely low foaming characteristics ideal for high-pressure washers Aluminum Carbon • Excellent cleaning efficiency Cast • Imperceptible thin film corrosion preventative offers superior rust Stainless Steel protection and weldable surface Tool Steel

• Exceptional hard water stability keeps washers clean and OPERATION/APPLICATION maintenance free METHOD • Lean concentrations assure low consumption and cost effectiveness Spray Immersion • High detergency/surfactant package providing added cleaning power beyond alkalinity Ultrasonic Bath
