MG Chemicals 411 - HFE Electronics Cleaner

The 411 HFE Electronics Cleaner is a hydrofluroether, zero residue, plastic safe, non-flammable, and nonconductive cleaner degreaser that can be used on live circuits. The cleaner provides a high degree of safety for the equipment, workers, and the environment without sacrificing performance. It is approved by the EPA under the SNAP program as a low toxicity replacement of ozone-depleting substances. It offers a similar cleaning performance to similar CFC type cleaners but without the accompanying safety concerns. Due to its high density, low surface tension, and low viscosity, the 411 cleaner will easily drip off even the most complex geometries without becoming trapped in small spaces.

Technical Details & Test Data

Compatibility

It is compatible with many plastics, seals, PCB components, paints, rubbers, and plant fibers.

Attention !

Always perform a compatibility test on a non-critical area or a representative test substrate prior to use. Test even if the compatibility chart predicts a high compatibility: modern parts may incorporate undeclared sensitive materials (such as custom plastic blends, custom additives, protective coatings, or decorative coatings).
