Milling, Drilling, and Turning Coolants


Jug	Pail

Pail Antifog Agent Additive

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.

Oil Based—Dilute oil-based coolants with water for use in flood coolant systems.

Machining and Fabricating Lubricant—Lubricants are sulfur free.

Mineral Oil Base—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.

Semi-Synthetic Oil Base—Semi-synthetic-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.

Synthetic Oil Base—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.

Antifog Agent Additive—Lubricants with antifog agent additives resist misting for a cleaner workspace. They are sulfur free.
