Improves spray uptake for improved weed control

Patented Adjuvant System

Class Act® Flex adjuvant is a flexible-rate water conditioner

offering an easy-to-use formulation that combines

ammonium sulfate (AMS) for water conditioning, a

nonionic surfactant, and a crop-based adjuvant system in

a convenient liquid premix. Like Class Act® NG®, Class Act®

Flex adjuvant contains patented CornSorb™ technology for

improved pesticide uptake and performance. Its higher ratio

of CornSorb™ technology helps increase performance on

tough weeds, such as lambsquarters.

With Class Act® Flex adjuvant, applicators do not have the

mixing and quality problems that can be associated with

AMS. The pre-dissolved liquid AMS alleviates sedimentation

and nozzle plugging, eliminating downtime caused by

hard-to-dissolve dry AMS. And there is no need to handle

bulky 51-pound bags of dry AMS. Class Act® Flex adjuvant

is available in bulk and mini-bulk containers for convenient

pumping, saving time and money.

Formulated for Many Herbicides

Class Act® Flex adjuvant is specifically formulated to meet

adjuvant and AMS requirements for glyphosate-based

herbicides, including Cornerstone® brands, Roundup®

brands and Touchdown® brands. Class Act® Flex adjuvant

is a perfect fit with Liberty®, diquat, Gramoxone® SL and

a variety of other herbicides with similar requirements.

Class Act® Flex adjuvant is also labeled for use with aquatic

herbicides.

Drift Control and Spray Coverage

To lock in spray coverage or deposition, and lock out drift,

include InterLock® adjuvant.

Fast, Aggressive Performance

Class Act® Flex adjuvant provides a flexible-rate system

and a different ratio of water conditioning AMS to

nonionic surfactant and CornSorb™ technology. The rate

can be adjusted to meet the water conditioning needs of

various water qualities and herbicides. Class Act® Flex

adjuvant has been extensively researched and provides

proven performance similar to Class Act® NG® or Alliance®

adjuvants. Plus, with lower rates, there is less product to

handle and store.

Application Rate

Surfactants are generally recommended on a volume-per-

volume (v/v) basis. For example:

Percentage v/v per 100 Gallons Spray Solution

0.125 = 1 pint

0.25 = 1 quart

0.50 = 2 quarts

1.00 = 1 gallon

Amount of NIS and Dry AMS in Class Act® Flex per 100 Gallons Spray Solution

Class Act® Flex (gallons)

Nonionic Surfactant (quarts)

Dry AMS (pounds)

1.0 = 1.0 = 2.7

2.5 = 2.5 = 6.8

See product label for exact mixing order. When using with glyphosate, Class Act® Flex adjuvant (or AMS sources) must be added to the tank before glyphosate.
