Low-Foaming Metalworking Fluids Offer Corrosion Protection

Chemetall has added two new products, Tech Cool 35058 and Tech Cool 35037, to its Tech Cool line of metalworking fluids for metal fabricators.

Tech Cool 35058 is a machining fluid developed for applications requiring micro-finish on ferrous alloys, aluminum alloys, low- and high-carbon steels, titanium, molybdenum, and tough alloys. It is low-foaming and specially formulated to run longer in high-velocity central systems. The product offers corrosion protection, contains no chlorine, sulfur, boron, or phosphorus compounds. The technology uses a blend of additives which extend sump life. The company recommends Tech Cool 35058 for use in most medium- to heavy-duty machining and grinding applications.

Tech Cool 35037 is a general purpose machining and grinding fluid developed for applications on aluminum and copper alloys. It is low-foaming and designed to deliver finishes for aluminum drilling and tapping applications. The product offers corrosion protection, extended sump life and contains no sulfur compounds. Its lubricity is activated by a chlorinated EP ingredient. According to Chemetall, Tech Cool 35037 is free of formaldehyde-releasing biocides and recommended for use in most general-purpose machining and grinding applications.

Both Tech Cool 35058 and 35037 are said to exhibit hard water tolerance and increased emulsion stability. The in-service cleanliness of these products is designed to enable  long-term system life without the formation of heavy, tacky, water-insoluble residues.
