General Purpose Steel substrates:
- Typically, smaller – medium sized production facilities.
- Lower tensile strength, conventional mild steels compared to most automotive OEMs and highly specialized stampers.
- Economic price point and “utility” of function are critical.
- Require excellent welding and pretreatment/finishing process compatibility.
- Usually lighter to medium duty stamping processes and simpler part geometries.
IRMCO SOLUTIONS FOR ENAMELING STEEL METAL-STAMPING:
- All IRMCO FLUIDS® products are free of oil and chlorinated paraffins.
- Cleaner running than oil-based lubricants.
- Often welded through without removal from part surfaces*.
- Excellent corrosion protection.
- More compatible with ISO 14001 and carbon reduction goals than oil-based lubricants.
