Fluid for Success

Metal Working Fluids

At Iwen Tool Supply, we offer a complete range of high-performance metal working fluids to support your manufacturing processes. Whether you need rust preventatives, cutting oils, cleaning solutions, or specialty lubricants, our fluids are engineered to provide maximum efficiency and protection in metalworking environments.

1. Metal Protection

Preventing rust and corrosion is critical to maintaining the integrity of your metal components. Our metal protection fluids ensure that your parts are safeguarded during and after production:

• Oil-Based Rust Preventatives: Formulated to provide a protective barrier on metal surfaces, these oils help prevent oxidation in harsh environments.
• Water-Based Rust Preventatives: Environmentally friendly and easy to apply, these preventatives offer reliable protection against rust while allowing for simple cleanup.

2. Metal Removal

Our range of cutting fluids is designed to enhance the efficiency of metal removal processes by reducing heat and friction, extending tool life, and improving surface finish:

• Straight Oils: Non-water-miscible oils that provide excellent lubrication for heavy-duty machining operations, particularly in high-temperature applications.
• Soluble Oils: These oils mix with water to create a coolant that provides lubrication while maintaining cooling properties, ideal for general-purpose machining.
• Semi-Synthetic Fluids: Combining the benefits of soluble oils and synthetic fluids, semi-synthetics offer superior cooling and lubrication for more demanding operations.
• Synthetic Fluids: Fully water-miscible and oil-free, synthetic fluids provide exceptional cooling and chip removal, ideal for high-speed machining.

3. Metal Cleaning

Effective cleaning solutions are essential for removing contaminants from metal surfaces, whether you're preparing parts for finishing or maintaining cleanliness during manufacturing:

• Spray Cleaners: High-pressure spray systems that remove oils, dirt, and debris from metal surfaces quickly and efficiently.
• Immersion Cleaners: Submersion-based cleaning fluids that allow thorough removal of grime and contaminants, ideal for complex geometries and parts with intricate surfaces.
• Quench Oils: Used in heat treatment processes, quench oils provide controlled cooling of metal parts while helping remove residues and maintain surface integrity.
• Vibratory/Deburr Cleaners: Specialized fluids for deburring and finishing processes, helping achieve smooth surfaces and uniform finishes on metal parts.

4. Metal Forming

Our metal forming fluids are engineered to reduce friction and improve performance in forming operations, such as drawing, stamping, and forging:

• Vanishing Oils: These low-residue oils evaporate after application, leaving no residue behind, making them ideal for parts that require minimal post-processing.
• Straight and Soluble Oils: Formulated for a wide range of metal forming operations, these oils offer excellent lubrication, reducing wear and tear on tools and equipment.
• Synthetic Fluids: Designed for high-stress applications, these fluids provide exceptional cooling and lubrication while minimizing environmental impact.
• Wire Drawing Fluids: Optimized for wire drawing processes, these fluids help reduce friction and extend the life of dies and other tooling.

5. General Manufacturing

In addition to specialized fluids for metalworking, we offer a variety of lubricants and oils designed for use in general manufacturing equipment:

• Way Oils: Ensures smooth and precise movement of machine tool slides and guideways, reducing stick-slip and wear.
• Spindle Oils: Low-viscosity oils that protect high-speed spindles, ensuring efficient rotation and reducing heat buildup.
• Hydraulic Oils: Formulated to provide superior performance in hydraulic systems, ensuring smooth operation and reducing wear on pumps and other components.
• R&O Oils (Rust & Oxidation Inhibited Oils): Multi-purpose oils designed to resist rust and oxidation, extending the life of components and improving system reliability.
