Wallover Oil Co. introduces WS 7800 machining coolant. WS 7800 is very low foaming, and forms a stable micro-emulsion in a wide variety of water qualities, according to the company.
The coolant is safe to use on a wide range of metals including ferrous alloys, titanium, cast aluminum and aerospace aluminum and copper alloys. WS 7800 offers high bio-resistance while providing excellent rust and corrosion protection for both the workpiece and the tool.
The low odor, stable blue emulsion is very operator-friendly to use. An undyed version — WS 7800C — is also available upon request.
Related Glossary Terms
- alloys
alloys
Substances having metallic properties and being composed of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal.
- coolant
coolant
Fluid that reduces temperature buildup at the tool/workpiece interface during machining. Normally takes the form of a liquid such as soluble or chemical mixtures (semisynthetic, synthetic) but can be pressurized air or other gas. Because of water’s ability to absorb great quantities of heat, it is widely used as a coolant and vehicle for various cutting compounds, with the water-to-compound ratio varying with the machining task. See cutting fluid; semisynthetic cutting fluid; soluble-oil cutting fluid; synthetic cutting fluid.
- copper alloys
copper alloys
Copper containing specified quantities of alloying elements added to obtain the necessary mechanical and physical properties. The most common copper alloys are divided into six groups, and each group contains one of the following major alloying elements: brasses—major alloying element is zinc; phosphor bronzes—major alloying element is tin; aluminum bronzes—major alloying element is aluminum; silicon bronzes—major alloying element is silicon; copper-nickels and nickel-silvers—major alloying element is nickel; and dilute-copper or high-copper alloys, which contain small amounts of various elements such as beryllium, cadmium, chromium or iron.
- emulsion
emulsion
Suspension of one liquid in another, such as oil in water.
