Forming lubricant works with all metals

Chemtool Inc. has introduced NuSol® Alumax AG for forming of all metals, including all nonferrous and aluminum alloys and tough, exotic ferrous alloys. The lubricant includes a hydrolytic additive that upgrades the thermal stability and oxidation resistance of the fluid during the lubrication process.

The product is formulated using a blend of preformed emulsions with an average particle size of 1 micron. A balanced surfactant package offers enhanced boundary lubrication and fluid detergency and cleanliness.

The fluid contains no sulfur, halogen, or chlorine. It produces low odor, low foam, and low smoke. The product resists the negative effects of hard water and provides corrosion protection for all dies, press surfaces, and processed parts.
