Benefits and Features

Designed for color and/or material changes on engineering resins plus efficient cleaning of hot runner systems, Purgex 3056 Plus has proven versatility on a wide range of resins.; Engineered for rapid turnaround on color and material changes. Efficiently removes residual contamination.; Effectively cleans the barrel, screw, check ring, as well as hot runner systems and is safely processed through hot runner gates as small as .030-inch (.75mm).; Thorough cleaning of melt pumps and is safely processed through dies as small as .030-inch (.75mm).; Active components in Purgex 3056 Plus neutralize acid gasses generated by PVC.; With regular use, Purgex forms a temporary barrier which protects steel surfaces from oxidation, extending the cleaning process.
