Dober Chemical Corp. UCA-4

Dober Chemical Corp. UCA-4 is a single component additive package that is used to make premium quality antifreeze, for use in light duty applications. It contains highly effective inhibitors designed to provide corrosion protection for metals such as cast iron, copper, solder, steel and aluminum. Antifreeze made using UCA-4 requires the addition of Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCA’s) when used in diesel engine applications.

Functions: Additive Packages, Anti-Freeze Agent, Dispersant

Compatible Substrates & Surfaces: Aluminum, Copper, Iron, Metal, Steel

Features: Corrosion Resistant, Scale Inhibiting
