Great for Silicone Greases!

Type GP

Specialty Cleaner


Type GP® Specialty Cleaner -- Powerful Solvent Cleans Silicone Greases, Cables, Filling Gels, Hydrocarbons, Transformer Oils, Shield Picks, Switches, Electronic Equipment, Parts, and More.

A Unique and Effective Replacement

for 1,1,1, Trichloroethane and Other Chlorinated Solvents

American Polywater introduces Specialty Cleaner Type GP to its SpliceMaster® family of electrical and communications cleaning products. SpliceMaster® Type GP is a less hazardous alternative to 1,1,1 trichloroethane. Type GP is an enhanced terpene-based cleaner engineered specifically for electrical and telcom cable cleaning. It evaporates rapidly and leaves no residue, while exhibiting excellent solvency power on silicone and hydrocarbon greases, fluxes, varnishes, shield picks, adhesives, hand grime, and other organic soils. GP is non-ozone depleting and non-carcinogenic.

Type GP Specialty Cleaner is ideal for electrical and telcom cleaning and degreasing situations where fast evaporation and high solvency power are crucial, yet a low flashpoint is acceptable.


Type GP® Catalog #GP-D72 is a 72-count self-dispensing and resealable canister. The towels feature a textured side to assist cleaning, and a soft side that's easier on hands.

    SAFETY

    Type GP Specialty Cleaner has a low level of toxicity. Unlike 1,1,1, trichloroethane, it does not form vapors quickly. As with any solvent, ventilation should be sufficient to keep vapors at safe levels. Type GP Degreaser is a combustible liquid with a flash point of 123°F. It should not be used for high temperature cleaning or exposed to fire or flame. Good industrial hygiene practice and appropriate precautions should be employed during use. See MSDS for specific details.
