Light Stamping Oil Introduction
Light Stamping Oil is a high performance lubricant specifically designed for use in accurate, high-speed stamping and forming operations. It is a lightweight, biodegradable, low pH oil used primarily to facilitate tool and die slide ways, to improve tool life, and to reduce or eliminate costly tool wear and breakage.
Light Stamping Oil is often used in applications where a wide range of parts must be consistently formed without any detrimental effects. In addition, this product can also be used to protect the formability of certain sheet metals and components.
This minimal cost light weight alternative was designed to replace traditional, heavier lubricants such as stamping and forming fluid. Due to its exceptional film strength and superior lubricating properties, conventional fluids are becoming obsolete.
Light Stamping Oil is manufactured from a neutral base oil, and does not contain any carbonizing agents or acidic solvents. This product is chemically inert, and contains no chlorine, sulfur, or nitrogen bearing compounds. It is formulated to prevent part formation from occurring, thereby eliminating costly rework.
Light Stamping Oil is also nonfoaming, noncorrosive, and resists thermal and oxidative stability. This product can be used in a wide variety of applications, including stamping, forming and edging operations. When used correctly, it helps reduce the labor costs associated with press operation, and ensures a longer operating time and improved tool life.
Light Stamping Oil also exhibits a superior water repellent and anti-friction properties. These excellent performance characteristics help prolong press part life, reducing both machine maintenance and production costs. This product also has the ability to reduce tool wear, reduce costs related to press dies, and increase the practicality of thin sheets.
Light Stamping Oil has excellent dispersal characteristics, helping to transfer heat away from the press and to the die, thus improving die life and reducing die maintenance costs. Its excellent anti-wear properties help to minimize equipment maintenance and downtime.
In addition, Light Stamping Oil has an excellent oxidative stability helping to reduce the need for frequent oil changes. This product can be applied using automatic lubricating systems, or by laminating and dipping the part in a bath of the product.
In conclusion, Light Stamping Oil is a lightweight, biodegradable, low pH oil used primarily to facilitate tool and die slide ways, to improve tool life, and to reduce or eliminate costly tool wear and breakage. It is chemically inert, nonfoaming, noncorrosive and exhibits superior water repellent and anti-friction properties. This product is also inexpensive and easy to use, making it an ideal alternative to conventional fluids.
