Water-soluble fluids and emulsion fluids have a high dilution or very low concentration and include high water content fluids (HWCF). Soluble oil fluids form an emulsion when mixed with water. The concentrate consists of a base mineral oil and emulsifiers to help produce a stable emulsion. They are used in a diluted form with concentrations ranging from 3% to 10%. They provide good lubrication and heat transfer performance. Water-soluble fluids and emulsion fluids are used widely in industry and are the least expensive among all cutting fluids. Water-soluble fluids are used as water-in-oil emulsions or oil-water-emulsions. Water-in-oil emulsions have a continuous phase of oil and superior lubricating and friction reduction qualities (i.e., metal forming and drawing). Oil-in-water emulsions consist of droplets of oil in a continuous water phase and have better cooling characteristics (i.e., metal cutting fluids and grinding coolants). Products & Services
Industrial hydraulic oil and transmission fluids are used to transmit power in hydraulic equipment and power transmission applications.
Metal working lubricants, coolants and fluids are specialized coatings and carriers for metal forming, metal cutting, lapping, polishing, and grinding applications.
Dielectric greases and insulating fluids are insulating oils, greases, transformer oils and fluids that have a high dielectric strength and are used in transformers, capacitors, EDM machining, and other electrical device applications.
Machining oil, cutting fluid and coolant filters are industrial filtration products used in metal processing applications to improve performance, product quality, and equipment life (i.e., maintenance schedule, repairs).
Heat transfer fluids, thermal oils, circulating coolants, and heater liquids are used to carry thermal energy in process heating and machine cooling applications.
