Milling, Drilling, and Turning Coolants
Dissipate heat and prevent corrosion with these coolants that stand up to long machining cycles when milling and turning. They are chlorine free for use where chlorine waste disposal is a concern.
Use water-based coolants at full strength and apply by hand. They're sulfur free, and they won’t leave an oily residue. Do not use with magnesium.
Dilute oil-based coolants with water for use in flood coolant systems. Mineral-oil-based coolants create a milky emulsion with excellent lubricity for use with difficult-to-machine material, such as stainless steel and hard metal. Lubricants with antimist additives resist misting for a cleaner workspace. They are sulfur free. Synthetic-oil-based coolants dissipate heat rapidly in high-speed applications and are long lasting. They create a clear emulsion that won’t foam, so you can see your workpiece clearly. They resist misting for a cleaner workspace. Lubricants are sulfur free. Semisynthetic-oil-based coolants are a mix of mineral and synthetic oil for economical, long-lasting performance. They are sulfur free and are formulated for use with soft metal, such as aluminum and copper.
