Usage & Dilution Recommendations

Pro-hib 4700B is primarily used in soak tank applications. Dilution recommended is 6 to 12 ounces per gallon of water. For optimum results solution temperatures should be maintained between 140°F and 160°F, although it may be used at ambient temperatures. It also has excellent cleaning properties and is capable of removing a variety of oily soils and particulate. These cleaning properties help remove particulate off of parts thus being conducive to the inhibiting process. Due to the high alkaline nature of this product, it should not be used on non-ferrous metals, as it may etch, pit, or damage them. Keep container closed when not in use and rotate stock. Store between 45°F and 95°F.
