EUROPEAN
Eurogrind 555 is a fully synthetic, long service life, metalworking fluid.
Novel, high performance, lubricity additives give superb machining
characteristics. Excellent corrosion control makes this suitable even for
cast iron feedstocks. The carefully balance formulation minimises sticky
residues normally associated with synthetic waterbased fluids. |
