MCC_MWF metal working lubricants

Lubricants for drilling, reaming, tapping and other metal working operations

DESCRIPTION

MOLYSLIP® MCC, MWF and MWS is a range of high-performance lubricants designed for severe metal working operations such as drilling, reaming and tapping. They are highly concentrated mixtures of lubricity and reactive extreme-pressure and anti-wear additives.

All of the products in the range provide excellent surface finish to components and protect tooling from wear and damage. They are suitable for most drilling, reaming and tapping (spiral point, spiral flute and fluteless) operations on most metals. For maximum flexibility of use and to accommodate individual preference the products available are:

MCC – A soft paste compound suitable for brush or dip application
MWF – A medium viscosity fluid suitable for manual application or automatic lubricator systems
MWS – A convenient aerosol form of MWF

It is advised that compatibility is checked prior to use as the sulphurised, extreme-pressure additives may interact with some metals.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Excellent extreme pressure and anti-wear performance
• Maximises tool life in arduous operations
• Available in liquid, paste and aerosol form

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

To obtain optimum performance MCC, MWF and MWS should be used as supplied. Apply either directly to the tool (while stationary) or to the hole to be tapped. Do not apply to rotating tooling.
