What Does It Take to Hit Production Targets for Aluminum Machining?
A lubricious, pH stable cutting fluid
that operates clean … is long on service life,
and low on maintenance
Acculube recommends Castrol Alusol XBB Series for machining aluminum and low-to-medium alloyed steel. This unique formula delivers exceptional performance over time, without additives. It also:
Keeps pH at a constant level, neutralizing up to 33% more acidic material
Helps prevent swarf build-up
Significantly increases drain intervals
Works without boron or formaldehyde-releasing agents
Supports good sump health, preventing infections and odors
Can save up to 30% in fluid top-ups
Contributes to a safer, healthier work environment
Alusol XBB Series helps automotive and other aluminum machining shops run cleaner with fewer stoppages, avoid filter blockage and reduce overall fluid consumption. In addition to aluminum, it is ideal for low to medium alloyed steel, and is suitable for both central systems and single-sump machines.
Castrol Alusol SL 51 XBB maintains pH at a constant level and assures constant productivity for longer than standard aluminum cutting fluids. It has been shown to neutralize up to 33% more acidic material. It provides an extended fluid life, meaning fewer interventions and reduced downtime.
Castrol’s XBB technology delivers long-lasting performance and stable operating conditions – improving your productivity – without boron or formaldehyde-releasing agents.
Designed for Soft Water
Castrol Alusol SL 61 XBB reduces foaming in soft water conditions.
In laboratory tests, it was proven to maintain a stable pH up to 44% longer than other cutting fluids, without the use of boron or formaldehyde-releasing agents.
Catrol Alusol SL 61 XBB neutralizes up to 44% more acidic material than conventional alternatives. It is ideal for multipurpose machining of aluminum alloys and low to medium alloyed steel, and is suitable for both large central systems and single pump machines.
