AL-500
AL-500 is a vegetable oil-based metalworking lubricant, which is a plant-based product. AL-500 forms a high strength molecular coating on the cutting edge of the tool, reducing friction and extending tool life. AL-500 is derived from natural oils, contains no petroleum, and is non-toxic, non-flammable, and non-polluting. This product is designed for use with an air driven spray mist system suitable for high-efficiency fluids. AL-500 produces “dry” chips as it is used up in the cutting operation, eliminating costly clean up and disposal.
Uses: AL-500 is designed for use in applications where flood coolants are prohibited or not required.
