This is a popular brake cleaner sold on Amazon [0] that I bought some time ago, I'm not sure but reading through the SDS it seems it does not contain TCE?
It says it contains "Hydrocarbons, C6-C7, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, <5% n-hexane"[1]

- jabl 4y agoI didn't look at the links, but from the ingredients list you posted, yes those are pure hydrocarbons, nothing chlorinated.
- inferiorhuman 4y agoThere are two common types of brake cleaner available in most of the United States: chlorinated and non-chlorinated. The big advantage of retail packaging is that it's typically in an aerosol can so you have the added perk of mechanical cleaning action. I typically use CRC brand stuff since it's easy to find, doesn't seem to harm most of the PA6/66 plastic under the hood, and works well. In not-California CRC markets the chlorinated brake cleaner with a red label and the non-chlorinated stuff with a green label. In California it's all non-chlorinated (potentially all low-VOC now too) despite the red/green cans having different SKUs. I suspect that the EU outlawed the chlorinated stuff a while back as they're typically more proactive than not-California.
