Key Features

A fast-drying, plastic-safe, high-strength cleaning solution engineered for fiber optic connectors, electronics, mechanical assemblies, and assembly lines. Sprays in any direction — removes oils, hydraulic fluids, grease, and ionic soils.

01
Fast-Drying Formula Evaporates quickly and leaves zero residue — minimal downtime between cleaning and reactivating equipment, critical for production line and field maintenance environments
02
Plastic-Safe Composition Formulated to be safe on most plastics — no material compatibility concerns when cleaning fiber optic connector housings, electronic enclosures, and plastic mechanical components
03
High Cleaning Strength Effectively removes organic and ionic soils including oils, hydraulic fluids, and grease — delivers professional-grade degreasing performance in a compact aerosol format
04
Low Surface Tension Penetrates and flushes contaminants from hard-to-reach areas — low surface tension allows the cleaning fluid to work into tight connector cavities, component gaps, and assembly crevices
05
All-Way Spray Valve Sprays in any direction — upright, inverted, or sideways — enabling precise application to any connector port, circuit board section, or mechanical assembly without repositioning the can
06
0.0% CFCs and HCFCs Environmentally compliant formulation — contains no CFCs or HCFCs, meeting environmental regulations for professional cleaning products used in commercial and government applications

Benefits & Applications

Fiber Optic Connectors

Cleans fiber optic connector end-faces to ensure optimal signal transmission and reduce signal loss — fast-drying formula means connectors are ready to mate immediately after cleaning.

Mechanical Assemblies

Removes oils and hydraulic fluids from mechanical components — maintaining efficiency and longevity of fiber optic hardware, patch panel mechanisms, and precision assemblies.

Circuitry & Electronics

Cleans handling soils and ionic contamination from circuit boards before reassembly — plastic-safe formulation and fast evaporation ensure no damage to sensitive electronic components.

Assembly Lines

Removes grease and contaminants from production line components — the all-way spray valve and low surface tension enable thorough cleaning of assemblies in any orientation without disassembly.

How to Use

For best results follow the inspect-clean-inspect process on every connector before mating.

1
Preparation

Ensure the equipment is powered down and cooled before cleaning. Use in a well-ventilated area — refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed safety information before use.

2
Application

Hold the aerosol can and spray directly onto the area to be cleaned. The all-way spray valve allows application from any angle — upright, inverted, or sideways — for complete coverage.

3
Allow to Dry

Allow the cleaner to evaporate completely before reactivating equipment. The fast-drying formula ensures minimal downtime — no wiping or rinsing required for most applications.

4
Storage

Store in a cool, dry location away from heat sources — flammable product, handle with care. Shelf life is 5 years unopened and 2 years after first use.
