thiXstrip® PetroGel Industrial Thixotropic Additive for Oil & Gas Cleaning & Maintenance (64oz)

thiXstrip® PetroGel is a professional-grade thixotropic additive engineered to transform oil-based cleaners, degreasers, and maintenance fluids into high-performance gels. Specially designed for the demanding environments of the oil & gas industry, it delivers powerful anti-sag, anti-settling, and shear-thinning properties—ensuring superior control and efficiency during heavy-duty cleaning and maintenance tasks.

• Thickens & Gels Oil-Based Fluids: Rapidly creates a stable gel network in oil or solvent systems, ideal for vertical and overhead applications.
• Prevents Drips & Runs: Advanced rheology modifiers prevent slumping and product migration, maximizing surface contact and cleaning power.
• Enhances Suspension: Maintains suspended particulates, allowing actives and abrasives to remain evenly distributed for more effective cleaning.
• Shear-Thinning Action: Easy application via brush, spray, or roller—thickens at rest and flows under force for optimal workability.
• Industry-Ready Durability: Built to withstand high-load, high-contamination environments found in pipelines, rigs, refineries, and maintenance yards.

Recommended Uses

• Pipeline and equipment degreasing
• Chemical cleaning of storage tanks or vessel interiors
• Thickening solvent blends for vertical or irregular surfaces
• Preventing settling in abrasive or particulate-laden systems

Easy Integration

Just blend into your chosen oil or solvent base with moderate-to-high shear mixing, following standard industrial blending protocols. Adjust loading rates to achieve your desired viscosity—from pourable gels to dense pastes.

Key Benefits

• Minimizes mess, waste, and runoff during application
• Boosts the stability and longevity of custom cleaning solutions
• Improves workplace safety and jobsite efficiency

Package Size: 64 oz industrial bottle—perfect for custom blends, production batches, and field maintenance tasks.
