Remove Burned-On Oil, Grease



Madison Chemical has introduced ULTRA-CLEAN US-159, an alkaline detergent developed specifically for difficult cleaning operations involving the removal of aged, oxidized, burned-on oil and grease, including engine and transmission repair and rebuilds.

Intended for immersion, including agi-lift and ultrasonic equipment, this formulation cleans more thoroughly in less time, thus increasing productivity, the company reported. Its formula produces low to moderate foam, thus maximizing ultrasonic cavitation. ULTRA-CLEAN US-159 is suited for machinery rebuilding, including engines and transmission, component cleaning during maintenance procedures and more.

Safe for use on ferrous alloys when used as directed, ULTRA-CLEAN US-159 may etch or stain aluminum and zinc alloys, therefore pretesting before use is recommended. Dilutions from 2-10% by volume in water that is 120-160° are typically effective. Heavier soils and/or ultrasonic applications may benefit from operating at higher temperatures up to 190 °F. Follow cleaning step with a thorough ambient-to-warm water rinse.

Madison Chemical technical sales representatives are available to assist in developing cleaning procedures, determining dilution rates, optimizing performance and more. All Madison Chemical products are manufactured in the USA.
