Bio-Based Precision Aerospace Solvent Cleaner

Vantage BIOACT® 105 is a high-performance, bio-based precision solvent cleaner engineered for demanding aerospace, military, and industrial maintenance operations. Formulated with a proprietary blend of bio-derived terpenes and refined hydrocarbons, BIOACT 105 is designed as a direct replacement for hazardous, ozone-depleting solvents such as 1,1,1-trichloroethane, CFC-113, and mineral spirits. It delivers exceptional solvency against heavy grease, hydraulic fluids (Skydrol®), wax, silicone, fuel residues, and uncured sealants.

Aviation Maintenance Advantage: Qualified to **AMS 3167 QPL Approved, AMS-3167B:2005 Class 1, Form 1, Types 1 and 2**, **Pratt & Whitney PMC 8929**, and conforming to **Boeing BAC 5750**, BIOACT 105 features a high flash point of 142°F (61°C). Its slow evaporation rate maximizes chemical dwell time on complex parts while lowering VOC emissions, providing an environmentally responsible, worker-safe solution for precision parts cleaning and pre-bonding surface preparation.

Ordering Information:
• Please verify your required container size (Pail / Drum) and shipping logistics with our aviation supply specialists before completing your purchase.

Key Features & Performance Benefits

• Multi-Spec OEM Conformance: Fully qualified under SAE AMS 3167 and Pratt & Whitney PMC 8929, meeting rigid Boeing BAC 5750 surface prep standards.
• High Solvency Strength: Rapidly dissolves persistent organic soils, heavy greases, military preserved slushes, phosphate-ester hydraulic fluids (Skydrol), and silicone residues.
• High Flash Point Profile: Rated with a flash point above 140°F (61°C), qualifying as a combustible/non-flammable liquid under OSHA classifications to improve hangar safety.
• Residue-Free Surface Preparation: Dries thoroughly leaving minimal non-volatile residue (NVR), ensuring optimal surface wetting prior to sealant application, priming, or structural adhesive bonding.
• Bio-Based Environmental Safety: Formulated free of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs), chlorinated solvents, heavy metals, or ozone-depleting chemicals (ODP 0.0).

Typical Applications

• Aerospace Surface Preparation: Essential for wipe-down degreasing of aircraft skins, wing spars, and structural joints prior to applying aerospace sealants, primers, or structural adhesives.
• Precision Immersion & Wipe Cleaning: Ideal for manual wipe cleaning or cold dip-tank immersion of disassembled engine parts, landing gear components, bearings, and hydraulic hardware.
• Tooling & MRO Maintenance: Widely used across overhaul bays to strip heavy grease, shop oil, and protective wax coatings from shop machinery and ground support equipment (GSE).

We understand that certain projects, maintenance schedules, or regulatory standards require strict specifications. If your order has specific shelf-life requirements, please proceed as follows:

How to Request: If you require a specific Date of Manufacture (DOM), Date of Expiration (DOE), or a specific minimum shelf-life percentage (%), you must clearly state this requirement:

In the Comments/Notes section when placing an online order.

Explicitly written on your Purchase Order (PO) or quote request email for offline orders.

Validation Process: Once your requirement is received:

We will ship your order if the available stock matches your specifications.
