Chlorine Free Semi-Synthetic Machining Fluid
Designed for industrial machining environments, VP850 is a chlorine-free semi-synthetic machining fluid that enhances tool life, surface finish, and operational efficiency. Its unique formula combines non-chlorinated extreme pressure (EP) additives with advanced cooling properties to reduce heat buildup, friction, and work hardening.
- Chlorine-Free & Environmentally Responsible – Formulated without chlorine, sulfur, or phenols, ensuring cleaner machining operations.
- Superior Cooling & Lubrication – A high-water content macro-emulsion improves cooling at the work zone while maintaining optimal film strength.
- Best-in-Class Bacteria Resistance – A dynamic bio-resistant package actively combats bacterial and fungal growth, extending sump life.
- Extended Tool Life & Production Rates – Reduces friction, heat buildup, and chip formation, optimizing performance in high-speed machining.
- Low-Foam Formula – Ensures smooth operation, even in high-pressure coolant systems.
- Excellent Tramp Oil Rejection – Helps maintain fluid integrity for longer operational cycles.
- Non-Irritating to Operators – Skin-friendly formulation improves workplace safety and comfort.
