HD5000 Non Solvent Degreaser is a heavy duty water based degreaser for dirt, grime, oil and grease, in 5L jerry cans (lots of 4), 20L and 200L drums.
What it does
HD5000 is Sierra's heavy duty water based degreaser, made to lift dirt, grime, oil and grease. Sierra lets you apply it undiluted for extra strength, or mix it with water to suit lighter jobs. Its SDS describes a lightly alkaline detergent solution with a pH of 12.5, containing sodium hydroxide under 2%. It is a green liquid that does not burn, and it travels as ordinary freight rather than as a dangerous good.
Where to use it
The SDS gives its intended use as a water based workshop degreaser. Think oily workshop floors, benches, tools, engines and machinery, as well as general grime on hard surfaces around a depot or factory. Our degreasers range has stronger caustic options such as Shock Blaster H.D. Degreaser for the worst jobs.
How to use
- Put on chemical goggles, a face shield and impervious gloves.
- Use it neat on heavy oil and grease.
- For lighter soiling, dilute with water. Sierra does not set a rate, so begin with a weak mix and adjust.
- Brush, mop or spray it on and agitate.
- Rinse thoroughly with water.
Safe on / avoid
Suited to hard workshop surfaces and equipment. Its pH of 12.5 can dull some finishes, so try a hidden area of paint, polished alloy or rubber before full use. Store it away from heat and flame. Read the Safety Data Sheet before use.
