Key features
Type
Cutting oils come in different formulations, and this 1L size is typically available as a soluble oil (an emulsion to be mixed with water) or a neat oil (for undiluted use). The specific formula is chosen based on the application. For general use, soluble cutting oils are most common.
Performance
- Superior Lubrication: The oil’s formulation reduces friction between the tool and the workpiece. This prevents the build-up of excess heat and extends the life of your cutting tools, saving on replacement costs.
- Effective Cooling: Cutting oils have a high heat-absorbing capacity, which dissipates the extreme heat generated during machining. This is critical for maintaining the hardness of the tool and preventing thermal damage to the workpiece.
- Improved Surface Finish: By lubricating the cutting process and flushing away chips, the oil prevents built-up edges and material adhesion, leading to a smoother, higher-quality finish on the workpiece.
- Corrosion Protection: Additives within the oil provide a protective layer that prevents rust and corrosion on both tools and workpieces, which is especially important in humid or wet environments.
- Chip Control: The oil’s properties aid in washing away metal chips and debris from the cutting zone, ensuring clear cutting and preventing machine clogging.
Versatile applications
