Military Specific Cleaning Products vs. Regular Cleaners: What’s the Difference?
Military cleaning products refers to industrial-grade chemicals designed for heavy-duty jobs.
These solutions differ from regular household cleaners due to their higher concentrations, increased effectives, and availability to be purchased in bulk.
Popular Military Cleaning Products by Applications
As an industry, the military has a lot of working parts. In the world of cleaning, this means that they also require a wide array of cleaning solutions for each type of application.
Here are some popular applications and types of cleaners the military may use:
- Electronics – Aerosol solvents safe for use on plastic electrical components are able to clean and maintain circuit boards and other delicate electronic parts.
- Aircraft – Solvent degreasers are commonly used to clean the surface and parts of aircraft, effectively removing oil and other containments to ensure smooth operations.
- Weapons – To ensure guns and other weapons function properly, specific cleaners are needed. One common cleaner is an environmentally preferred dielectric solvent that is great for cleaning many weapons systems.
- Ground Vehicles – Parts cleaners are great for removing oil, grease, and carbon resin from both rubber and plastic surfaces.
- Floors, Hangers & Other Common Surfaces – Solvent-based degreasers are effective at removing grease, coal dust, carbon deposits, oil, paints, and other stubborn stains from a variety of surfaces, making them popular for use on floors, hangers, etc.
While this is by no means an extensive list of all the different chemicals and applications that the military uses, it does show the same idea: A wide array of chemicals are required to keep operations running smoothly.
Just think: If there was no specific aircraft cleaner for regular maintenance, military aircrafts’ lifespans would be significantly reduced, leading to time consuming and expensive repairs/replacements.
Like a well-oiled (and well-cleaned) machine, the military needs all sectors to operate optimally to ensure the best outcomes possible. The right chemicals help get the job done.
