OVERVIEW

Maintain a Safe Welding Environment

In a busy welding shop, shared tools and equipment can quickly become vectors for grime and germs. The Walter 53K117 Surface Disinfectant offers a robust solution for keeping your shop clean without compromising the integrity of your equipment. With a 70% alcohol base, this sanitizer cuts through light oils and fingerprints while disinfecting surfaces, making it an excellent dual-purpose cleaner for the welding industry. It is particularly useful for wiping down shared assets such as welding machine interfaces, wire feeder knobs, gas regulator dials, and ground clamps between shifts.

Fast-Acting and Residue-Free

One of the key benefits for welders is the residue-free finish. Unlike bleach-based or soapy cleaners that can leave a film, this alcohol-based solution evaporates cleanly. This is crucial when cleaning precision tools or surfaces that will later be handled with welding gloves. The 20L pail ensures you have an ample supply on hand to keep refillable spray bottles stocked throughout the shop. It allows fabricators to quickly spray and wipe down their station at the start and end of the day, promoting a culture of safety and cleanliness.

Safety Considerations

While highly effective, it is important to remember that this is a flammable liquid. It should be used to clean surfaces when they are cool and away from active arcs or sparks. Once the solution has evaporated, the surface is safe. This product is an excellent addition to any MRO chemical locker, ensuring that hygiene standards are met alongside fabrication standards. From the breakroom tables to the handle of the drill press, Walter's surface disinfectant helps keep the focus on the work by reducing health risks in the shop.
