WINTREX® HD
- Chemical Family
- Mixtures & Blends
WINTREX® HD heat transfer fluid is an inhibited ethylene glycol designed for use in hydronic systems for freeze and corrosion protection. WINTREX® HD is designed to extend fluid life where service temperatures are higher and the likelihood of thermal degradation is greater. It is sometimes also used in less demanding applications because the heavy duty inhibitors last longer, and maintenance requirements can be reduced.

- HIGHLIGHTS
The effectiveness of WINTREX® HD heat transfer fluid in preventing corrosion has been proven both in use and in laboratory testing. Using WINTREX® HD in place of brine solutions or uninhibited glycol/water solutions lowers maintenance costs and improves heat transfer efficiency. WINTREX® HD includes a fluorescent yellow dye, for leak detection. WINTREX® HD is designed to protect components commonly found in residential and commercial systems. WINTREX® HD can also be used with aluminum at temperatures below 150°F (66°C). At temperatures above 150°F (66°C), use of WINTREX® HD is not recommended because the inhibitors will not fully protect aluminum components in the system. WINTREX® should not be used with galvanized steel.
