Castrol Delivers High-Performance Aerospace Aluminum Machining Fluid
Castrol Industrial Americas is proud to introduce Castrol Alusol® A, a high-performance semi-synthetic metalworking fluid for aerospace machining, including difficult operations such as reaming and tapping. Castrol Alusol A increases productivity while cutting costs by extending fluid life and reducing tool consumption and disposal costs.
Castrol Alusol A is formulated for machining and grinding aerospace aluminum and aerospace alloys in either large central systems or single sump applications. Castrol Alusol A is chlorine-free, yet it overcomes the difficulties normally associated with machining aerospace alloys such as tool wear, poor surface finish and staining.
Unlike many semi-synthetic fluids, Castrol Alusol A is extremely bioresistant. Such resistance to fungal and bacterial attack prolongs fluid life, minimizes the use of additives, and reduces maintenance and machine downtime.
Castrol Alusol A provides excellent wetting properties for better penetration at the point of cut, minimal fluid drag-out, and clean machine tools and components. With its tight, stable emulsion, Castrol Alusol A delivers consistent performance in a
variety of water conditions. Castrol Alusol A exhibits superior foam control for maximum cooling properties without costly spills. Additionally, Castrol Alusol A has a mild odor. It is pleasant to work with and well received by machine operators.
Castrol is the world's leading supplier of high-performance metalworking fluids and industrial lubricants, and is committed to formulating safe, innovative products like Castrol Alusol A.
Castrol Industrial Americas is the marketing division of Castrol Industrial North America Inc., a subsidiary and the leading lubricants brand of BP p.l.c. BP is one of the world's largest energy companies and a leader in the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas, and the manufacturing and marketing of fuels, lubricants and petrochemicals.
