What is Kendon Breach Penetrant and what is it used for?

Breach Penetrant is an organo-silicone based non-ionic wetter, spreader and penetrant formulated for use with agricultural pesticides. It is effective with most agricultural chemicals — including fungicides, insecticides, miticides, herbicides and foliar micro-nutrients — unless otherwise stated on the pesticide label.
Breach Penetrant contains 1020g/L Polyether Modified Polysiloxane as the active constituent. It is formulated as a highly effective organo-silicone surfactant containing a unique blend of polymers.
Breach acts as a wetter, spreader and penetrant in the spray mixture, improving the coverage and uptake of the pesticide applied. It is effective with most agricultural chemicals; however, timing, weather conditions, method of application and mixture with chemicals not specifically recommended are beyond the control of the seller — users should carefully observe spray deposits, rate efficiencies, compatibilities and effectiveness in initial applications and adjust the rate accordingly.
Rates vary depending on the pesticide situation. Refer to the Directions for Use - Application Guide table above for the full rate schedule, ranging from 30ml – 60ml per 100L for fungicides, insecticides, miticides and foliar micro-nutrients, up to 200ml per 100L for glyphosate, metsulfuron and brushy or woody weed boom spraying. Use rates are given as a guide only — always follow the directions on the pesticide label where an organo-silicone adjuvant is recommended.
Follow this three-step sequence:
  1. Mix the pesticide product with water when the tank is approximately 30% full.
  2. Add Breach when the tank is nearly full.
  3. Complete filling of the tank.
Do not use Breach if the pesticide manufacturer prohibits the use of surfactants with their product. Do not use Breach in any manner contrary to the label unless authorised under appropriate legislation. Always follow the precautionary statements on the label of the pesticide(s) being used with Breach.
