Penetone Corp.: De-Icer 809

Penetone Corp.

The West Penetone De-Icer 809 is a concentrated liquid de-icer and ice preventive treatment. It is designed to penetrate ice and heavily packed snow by breaking the surface-to-ice bond, facilitating removal. Suited for use on track switches, it also can protect surfaces from ice formation prior to freezing rain or snow. It has no flash or fire point and contains no chlorides that can harm plant life, concrete, asphalt or metals, the company says. It may be applied with a hand-type garden sprayer or power-spray apparatus.
