Industrial Degreaser for Facility Maintenance
Tough Guy 49NW16 is a concentrated, water-based degreaser supplied in a 5 gal pail. It is formulated for facility maintenance crews who need a non-flammable, biodegradable cleaner that is safe on plastic surfaces. The purple liquid arrives ready to dilute for large-scale degreasing tasks.
Dilution Ratio Controls Consumption and Cost
The concentrate mixes at a 1:32 ratio, turning a single pail into a high volume of working solution. This ratio directly determines how many gallons of cleaner each 5 gal container produces. Buyers who need a ready-to-use product without mixing steps should look elsewhere.
Low VOC Content Meets Air-Quality Rules
At 3 percent VOC, the formula qualifies as low-VOC for environments with strict emissions limits. The net weight of 45.4 lb confirms the fill volume for shipping and handling calculations. Facilities requiring an NSF-rated product will not find that certification here.

Questions about this item
How often will I need to replace the 5 gal pail of concentrated degreaser?
Replacement frequency depends on your usage rate; the concentrate mixes at a 1:32 dilution ratio for ready-to-use solution.
What is the first limitation I will hit during continuous cleaning tasks?
The product is a liquid concentrate requiring dilution before use, so mixing time and proper 1:32 ratio preparation are the immediate practical limits.
Will the degreaser produce strong fumes or heat if used all day in a shop?
The water-based formula has low VOC content at 3 percent, is nonflammable, biodegradable, and contains no butyl for reduced odor during extended use.
