Advanced, high lubricity metal removal fluid
HOCUT 4940 is free from boron, chlorine, formaldehyde-release biocides, and secondary amines of all types. The fluid is considered non-hazardous under CHIP legislation, and requires minimal hazard warning labelling. The product is compliant with REACH and seen as a “Future Proof” technology for our customers.
Quaker Houghton’s HOCUT 4940 metalworking coolant is a unique technology platform characterised by very long sump-life and versatile emulsion characteristics. The product has been designed to meet the demands of high speed turning, milling and grinding of arduous aerospace materials where coolant pressures can exceed 100 bar. HOCUT 4940 is based on an innovative and high performance lubricity package giving outstanding surface finish and exceptional tool life performance in difficult operations. Tool life improvements of up to 30% can be achieved against conventional high lubricity fluids.
It can operate extremely well at between 6 – 7% concentrations, typically 2% lower than other high performance fluids.
The advanced formula is compatible with all material types including titanium, nickel, and sensitive aluminium alloys. HOCUT 4940 will enable the use of one metalworking coolant across hard metal machining operations increasing the capacity for recycling and waste minimisation.
We are proud to be able to offer such a product which will ensure compliance and cost effectiveness for years to come.
