DOWFROST™ HD
DOWFROST™ HD is a yellow-dyed, industrial-grade inhibited propylene glycol (PG) thermal fluid for heat transfer applications between −45°C and 160°C (−50°F and 325°F).
DOWFROST™ HD inhibited propylene glycol (PG) is comprised of about 94% PG and 6% corrosion inhibitors. DOWFROST™ HD (heavy duty) has a lower PG composition to allow for a higher concentration of corrosion inhibitors for maximum protection and rust prevention. These additional components do not compromise toxicity fluid and provide enhanced corrosion protection that is unsurpassed in the industry.
DOWFROST™ HD has a fluorescent-yellow color and can operate at higher temperatures than regular DOWFROST™. DOWFROST™ HD is suitable for use in environments between −50°F and 325°F (−45°C and 160°C).
DOWFROST™ HD is intended for low-toxicity, non-food processing applications and provides freeze protection down to −60°F.
DOWFROST™ HD is available in a range of prediluted concentrations and package sizes.
