Why Oil-Free Industrial Lubricant?
Oil-free, water-based stamping lubricants may offer many benefits for your applications over oil-based lubricants. Traditional oil-based lubricants employ materials like pigments, fats & other water-insoluble additives that can negatively impact application equipment & worker safety as well as increase housekeeping costs. Some of the potential benefits of IRMCO’s oil-free lubricants include:
- Cleaner weld-through properties
- Easier mixing & delivery through conventional equipment
- Cleaner, easier-to-inspect parts
- Reducing Production V.O.C
- Less energy is required to remove from stamped parts in finishing
- The excellent environmental safety profile
