Metalworking Fluids & Coolants
Metalworking Fluids & Coolants are essential in machining, cutting, grinding, and forming operations to enhance tool performance, improve surface finish, and extend equipment life. These fluids reduce heat and friction generated during metal-to-metal contact, preventing tool wear and material distortion. Available in various formulations—including soluble oils, synthetic fluids, semi-synthetics, and straight oils—they serve multiple functions such as cooling, lubricating, and flushing away chips and debris. In addition to performance benefits, many coolants also include rust inhibitors and biocides to maintain fluid cleanliness and protect both tools and workpieces from corrosion and microbial growth.
- Cools cutting tools and metal surfaces to prevent overheating
- Reduces friction for smoother, more precise machining
- Extends tool life and improves surface finish
- Flushes away chips, debris, and swarf from the cutting zone
