A well-maintained hydronic heating system provides reliable performance even during the harshest winter.  Heating maintenance professionals know that top quality materials are critical to achieving superior performance. That is why heating and HVAC contractors depend on Hercules maintenance and stop-leak products. They are formulated for high performance and developed with both the user and the environment in mind. Hercules "clean and friendly" furnace cement is the latest example of this commitment. Its patented formula is the first and only to meet OSHA's requirement of less than .1% crystalline silica.

Stop-Leaks

boiler liquid
Seals and repairs cracks and leaks in steam and hot water systems. This liquid formula will not clog hot water coils, controls, valves, or vents. Forms a tough seal that expands and contracts with heat. Resists high pressure and is not affected by boiler cleaners. No odors - no priming - no foaming. Does not contain petroleum distillates. Compatible with Hercules cryo-tek  or other types of propylene glycol-based anti-freeze products, chemical additives and boiler treatment compounds. NSF registered/USDA authorized.

Non-Toxic Anti-Freeze

For heating systems requiring freeze protection as well as corrosion preventive. Hercules cryo-tek™  anti-freeze not only provides this protection, but with its exclusive triple protection inhibitor system, also protects against mineral deposits and mineral sedimentation. A blend of virgin propylene glycol and the triple protection inhibitor package, cryo-tek is designed for use in hydronic heating and cooling closed-loop systems, most solar heating systems, snow melts, radiant heat and general plumbing systems. Use in systems fabricated with metal, plastics (except CPVC) and rubber piping, fittings, seals, and other parts. (Corrosion inhibitors are effective with most metals including steel, aluminum (up to 160º F) and copper. For those boilers with aluminum heat exchangers - see cryo-tek -100/AL on next page.) Non-flammable, odorless, non-toxic, non-irritating, and compatible with Hercules boiler stop-leak and heating system cleaners. (Please note: Minimum flow protection levels are estimated and are dependent on system and equipment. Attempting to circulate fluid below freeze point may overload and/or cause pump failure. Check with system manufacturer for compatibility.)

 

 

 

cryo-tek original
45% virgin propylene glycol with Hercules triple protection inhibitor package, pre-mixed with water, in a ready-to-use formulation. Undiluted, it provides freeze protection down to -20º F, a minimum fluid flow to -42º F, and burst protection to -80º F. Check dilution tables in Hercules spec sheet to obtain desired protections. Not for use in boilers with aluminum heat exchangers - see cryo-tek -100/AL on next page. Blue liquid.
