DS-800 4X1 GAL CASE – Hydrocarbon Degreasing Solvent

DS-800 4X1 GAL CASE is a liquid industrial cleaning solvent from the DYSOL range. It is identified for general degreasing operations involving hydrocarbon contamination.

The manufacturer lists soils including:

• Oils
• Greases
• Tar
• Cutting oils
• Common workshop contaminants

When selecting an oil and grease removal solvent, the contaminant is only one part of the decision. The substrate, existing finish, cleaning method and following operation must also be considered.

Product and Packaging Reference

The case configuration and the quotation unit should be confirmed separately. Ask whether pricing and minimum order quantities apply to an individual container or a complete case.

Where DS-800 May Be Specified

Manufacturer documentation identifies DYSOL DS-800 for aerospace, automotive and equipment maintenance applications.

It may be considered as:

• A hydrocarbon soil remover for an established cleaning process.
• A cutting oil cleaning solvent where the substrate and procedure permit.
• A solvent for equipment maintenance under a documented work instruction.
• A surface preparation solvent before a subsequent operation, where specified.

Product selection does not establish universal compatibility or guarantee that a surface meets every painting, coating, bonding or sealing requirement.

Cleaning Is Not the Same as Process Acceptance

Removing visible contamination does not, by itself, confirm that a component is ready for its next manufacturing or maintenance stage.

Before approving a DS-800 degreasing solvent application, establish:

1. The material and surface finish.
2. The contamination to be removed.
3. The permitted cleaning method.
4. The applicable drying or cleanliness requirements.
5. The specification governing the next operation.
6. Any customer-specific product restrictions.

Follow the approved process rather than assuming that one solvent can replace another.

Published Technical References

The published Technical Data Sheet lists:

• Flash point: 40°C / 104°F, measured under ISO 13736.
• Initial boiling point: 155°C / 311°F.
• Lockheed Martin B6274-1: identified as “meets.”

These are published reference values, not additional approvals or guarantees. Confirm the current document revision and the exact specification required by the customer.

Consult the official DS-800 Technical Data Sheet and SOCOMORE’s DS-800 product information.

Safety and Shipping Review

The published North American SDS classifies DS-800 as a flammable liquid and vapour. It also identifies potential drowsiness or dizziness and an aspiration hazard if swallowed.

Review the manufacturer-issued DS-800 Safety Data Sheet and request the current version applicable to the destination market.

The document available at this link is dated 27 August 2018. Confirm whether a newer revision applies before use.

Storage, ventilation, personal protection, ignition control, waste disposal and transport requirements must follow the relevant SDS and local regulations. Do not infer transport status from a general marketing statement.

Request the Correct Supply Configuration

For a DS-800 enquiry, send RIO Middle East:

• Product code P28256-4X1GAL-P-1.
• Required number of individual containers or complete cases.
• Delivery destination.
• Intended cleaning application.
• Required specification and revision.
• Required TDS, SDS and batch documentation.

Specifying DS-800 one-gallon containers separately from complete cases helps clarify the commercial requirement before a quotation is prepared.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is DS-800 used for?

DS-800 is a general degreasing solvent identified for removing hydrocarbon soils such as oils, grease, tar and cutting oils.

• What does 4X1 GAL CASE mean?

It identifies a case configuration containing four one-gallon containers. Confirm whether the quotation is priced per container or per case.

• How many litres are in the case?

Four US gallons equal approximately 15.14 litres, divided between four containers of approximately 3.785 litres each.

• Is DS-800 supplied as wipes?

This product code identifies a liquid configuration. Manufacturer literature mentions separate pre-saturated wipe formats, which require their own product references.

• Can DS-800 be used on every surface?

No universal compatibility should be assumed. Confirm the substrate, coating, seals and applicable cleaning procedure before use.

• Is DS-800 non-flammable?

No. The published SDS classifies DS-800 as a flammable liquid and vapour.

• Is DS-800 approved by Lockheed Martin?

The published TDS states that the product meets B6274-1. That wording should not be replaced with an unrestricted approval claim.

• What product code should I use?

Use P28256-4X1GAL-P-1 and state whether the requirement is for individual containers or complete cases.
