Soluble Oil is a chlorine-free, light-duty metalworking fluid designed to emulsify easily and form a long-lasting, stable emulsion when mixed with water. It provides excellent cooling and lubricity for light- to medium-duty cutting and grinding of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, resulting in extended tool life and good surface finishes on the machined parts. It has been specially formulated to provide enhanced rust protection and greater emulsion stability when used with water qualities of varying hardness. Soluble Oil is fortified with special emulsifiers to form a stable, milky emulsion when mixed with water. The high specific heat of water and the excellent metal wetting ability of the emulsion provide excellent cooling and lubricity for most machining operations that require soluble oil. This promotes longer tool life by dissipating heat and reducing friction between the cutting tool and the workpiece. Its improved emulsion stability allows extended time between sump clean outs. Its enhanced rust protection helps protect the cutting tool and the parts being machined. Soluble Oil has very low foaming tendency, which allows its use in high-speed machining and grinding operations. It also provides a high level of rejection of tramp oil contamination to facilitate skimming and removal of tramp oils from sumps and reservoirs. It does not contain any chlorinated compounds, making disposal of the used fluid easier. Applications: - Light- to medium-duty machining operations, including broaching, drilling, grinding, milling, sawing and tapping, with water hardness up to 500 ppm
- Machine shops working with a wide variety of ferrous and non-ferrous metals
