LUBRODAL F 318

LUBRODAL F 318




Graphite-free, water-miscible die lubricant

Description

LUBRODAL F 318 is an effective, graphite-free, water miscible lubricant/release agent for dies and tools used in hot metalworking processes.
LUBRODAL F 318 is supplied as a concentrate which must be thinned with tap water before use.

Method of application

LUBRODAL F 318, when used in the correct concentration, is a cost-effective die lubricant. The optimum proportions of lubricant to water should be determined in test runs. The dilution ratio depends on
- the shape, weight and material of the work pieces
- the forging cycle, contact time and the difficulty of the operation
- the required cooling effect

Guidelines for dilution:

Complicated pieces or difficult operations:
→ 2 - 5 parts water, 1 part LUBRODAL F 318

Standard forging operations:
→ 5 - 15 parts water, 1 part LUBRODAL F 318

Simple parts and high unit weights:
→ 15 - 30 parts water, 1 part LUBRODAL F 318

LUBRODAL F 318 can be applied using hand spray guns, static and automatic spraying equipment.
To achieve an effective, even coverage, use a spray with an adjustable nozzle and adjust the air-liquid ratio.
LUBRODAL F 318 is graphite-free and therefore does not leave graphite deposits which are often the cause of breakdowns in spraying equipment. This greatly reduces the amount of maintenance required for spraying equipment.

Features

  • creates a transparent whitish film on the tools
  • high wetting temperatures
  • reduces friction and therefore operating power
  • no build-up in dies
  • prevents flaws and improves work-piece surfaces
  • increases die operating life
  • reduces temperature peaks on the die
  • does not contain corrosive ingredients
  • presents no health risks to operators, and does not damage machinery
