ASTRO-CUT HIGH-PRESSURE
Biostable high pressure cutting and grinding fluid
ASTRO-CUT HIGH PRESSURE combines the superior chemical flexibility of synthetics with 15% mineral oil for corrosion protection and lubrication. ASTRO-CUT HIGH PRESSURE has exceptional foam control, hard water stability and tramp oil rejection while providing outstanding lubricity for machining and grinding. It is compatible with virtually all metals except magnesium and is formulated without the use of chlorine.

Biostability:
BIOSTABILITY refers to the ability of a metalworking coolant to resist extreme biological degradation. This provides extremely long sump life in a properly maintained machine tool and diminishes the possibility of "Monday Morning Odor".
Applications:
Designed for use in high and low pressure metal removal operations such as all CNC milling, turning, drilling, tapping, grinding and sawing.
Advantages:
- Very Low Foam for High Pressure Operations
- Eliminates Need for Tankside Additives
- Excellent Corrosion Inhibition
- Exceptional Hard Water Stability
- Outstanding Lubricity for Superior Finishes
- Operator Friendly and Clean Running
- Superior Sump Life

When mixing coolant, it is best to use an automatic proportioner which accurately and thoroughly mixes coolant. Always replenish the coolant with a mixture of coolant and water, not just coolant or water. Never add coolant concentrate directly to the sump.
IMPORTANT! At concentrations below 4%, the biostability of this product may be compromised, leading to much shorter sump life. To insure maximum coolant life, sump should be thoroughly cleaned and neutralized using ASTRO-CLEAN A prior to charging machine with ASTRO-CUT HIGH PRESSURE.
