Blaser Swisslube launches high performance Blasocut GR 50 grinding fluid
1 min read
Blaser Swisslube's Blasocut GR 50 has been formulated to provide optimum performance across many grinding applications. Part of the company's Bio-concept range, it is extremely low foaming across a wide range of water hardness conditions and its lubricity and ability to withstand heavy-duty grinding operations lead to long sump life, says Jemtech.
UK and Ireland distributor Jemtech also reports that tests using Blasocut GR 50 show that the product is capable of dramatically reducing wheel wear and dressing frequencies, while feedrates, step over and depth of cut values can be increased without compromising the surface finish quality. Early indications also suggest that due to the washing action of the GR 50 fluid, which keeps the grinding wheel free from being clogged with ground material, the product will be ideal for heat sensitive materials as the ground face remains cool.
The Bio-concept product excludes the use of biocides, chlorine and boron, while its zero per cent mineral oil content leaves both the machine tool and ground components free of any oil residues yet protects parts with a thin anti-corrosive coating. It is also biologically and pH-stable making it suitable for central coolant systems, as well as stand-alone machine.
Blasocut GR 50's broad application range can reduce the need to stock a number of products but, Jemtech suggests, it will deliver productivity gains particularly when steel, cast iron, titanium and Inconel components are involved. It is available in 25 litre cans, 205 litre drums and 1,000 litre bulk containers
