QA-1250D is a Silicone-based antifoam additive in dilute form. It is used as a foam preventative. Extremely small amounts of the fluid effectively controls foam in especially in lubricant oil systems. This product has low toxicity and is essentially odorless. Treat rates required depend on base oil quality and weight of oil being treated, as heavier grades typically produce more foam. Typical treat rates of 50-100 ppm in the finished fluid are required. The active ingredient is pre-diluted in a solvent to aid in dispersion in the medium for proper activity. Higher levels of treat may create haze in the finished fluid.
