Prochem Speciality Products Ferrous Soak

Prochem Speciality Products Ferrous Soak is a high powered, strongly alkaline, chelated cleaner designed for use in hot immersion tank cleaning of ferrous metals, engine blocks, heads, radiators, cylinder heads, crankshafts, gears, etc. It is a premium heavy-duty hot tank soak cleaner for ferrous metals which penetrates and brakes up oil impregnated scale formation, and emulsifies and saponifies oil and grease. Chelating and sequestering properties control redeposition of soil residues and water hardness and greatly retards scale formation to permit efficient heat exchange. Carbon, paint, and light and moderate rust coatings are effectively stripped at higher concentration, while light and heavy oil, grease and dirt are effectively cleaned in lower concentration. High quality results are consistently performed when used as directed. Ferrous Soak is safe on ferrous metals only.
