Product information

Details

Hi-Tec Oils Soluble Cutting Fluid is a chlorine-free, borate-containing soluble cutting oil for light to moderate boring, milling, drilling, tapping, threading, broaching, turning, reaming and grinding.

Key Features

  • Stable, low-foaming emulsion: Forms a white emulsion with good reserve and a low foaming tendency for workshop machining systems.
  • Tool lubrication and cooling: High oiliness and low friction help extend tool life and improve the finish between the cutting tool and work surface.
  • Ferrous rust protection: Protects steel and ferrous machined metals at water-to-oil dilutions up to 60:1.
  • Resistance to bacterial degradation: Contains a biocide to help reduce staining, corrosion and loss of emulsion life caused by bacterial growth.
  • Hard-water tolerance: Suitable for water hardness up to 400 ppm calcium carbonate.
  • Chlorine-free formulation: Contains no free phenolics or nitrites.

Before You Buy

  • Check the machining operation and material before selecting concentration: turning, milling and drilling 3–5%; threading, reaming, tapping and broaching 4–5%; grinding 2.5%.
  • Add the oil slowly to water while mixing thoroughly; never add water to the oil. Monitor concentration and pH, remove chips and grinding debris, and remove tramp oil with a skimmer or centrifuge. Filtration is particularly important for grinding and cast-iron fines.
  • Use the product data and Safety Data Sheet for material selection, safe handling and disposal.

In the Box

  • 1 × container of Soluble Cutting Fluid concentrate in the selected pack size.
