Materials Compatibility

Aqualink HT804F ver2 is suitable for use with steel, cast iron, copper, bronze, brass and anodised aluminium. Zinc, cadmium, lead
and magnesium should be avoided.

Seals and Elastomers

Seal materials properties can vary within a classification depending upon compounding techniques. Compounding can enhance or reduce various properties and characteristics. In the case of Buna N, certain formulae will be more resistant than others. This can also be said for some of the urethanes. Leather and cork are best avoided. Consult your packing and seal supplier for specific recommendations.

Aqualink HT804F ver2 is generally compatible with pure synthetic rubber packing’s and seals such as Buna N (Nitrile), butyl, Viton,
Teflon, nylon and silicone.

Hose Liner Material

Laboratory compatibility tests have shown that Aqualink HT804F v2 provides acceptable resistance to physical change in the properties of Nylon 11 materials.

Paint

Likely to have a softening and stripping action on conventional paints. Where conventional paint coatings have to be replaced, those with an acrylic, epoxy or silicone base should be suitable.

Storage

The products should be stored in dry conditions. It is important that tops should be replaced on all containers when not in use. All drums, tanks and containers should be clearly marked with the contents and should be used in delivery rotation. The colour of this material will fade if exposed to day light for a long period.

Packaging / Cleanliness

Aqualink HT804F ver2 is filtered to meet NAS1638 Class 6 cleanliness level in the drum. Aqualink HT804F ver2 is available in 55 gallon/205 litre drums and semi bulk containers.
