Soluble Cutting Oil

Description

Prado’s Soluble Cutting Oil is a chlorine-free, emulsion-forming metalworking fluid ideal for light to medium machining. It offers strong cooling and lubrication, multi-metal compatibility, and clean operation perfect for workshops aiming for efficient machining with reduced environmental impact.

🔧 Product Type

• Prado Soluble Cutting Oil
  A water-miscible metalworking fluid forming stable emulsions, designed for light to medium-duty machining such as drilling, milling, grinding, tapping, and sawing of both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

🛡️ Key Benefits

1. Excellent Cooling & Lubrication
   Effectively cools the cutting edge and reduces friction during machining, extending tool life and improving surface finishes .

2. Stable Emulsion Formation
   Easily forms a long-lasting macro-emulsion with water (typically at 3–10%), resisting tramp oils and foaming for consistent performance.

3. Multi-Metal Compatibility
   Suitable for machining steel, aluminum, copper, and other alloys, reducing corrosion and avoiding metal contamination .

4. Rust Protection & Cleanliness
   Includes corrosion inhibitors to protect machined parts and tool surfaces while promoting cleaner operations .

5. Worker-Friendly
   Chlorine-free formulation reduces harmful residues, odors, and health risks in the workplace .

🛠️ Usage Tips

• Mix Ratio: Typically 3–10% soluble oil in water; grinding often uses 3–4% dilution depending on water quality.

• Mixing Method: Add oil to water—not water to oil—for proper emulsification.

• Maintenance: Monitor emulsion with a refractometer, maintain concentration, and add biocides to prevent microbial growth in sumps
