The Oil for Most Machine Shop Needs

This oil provides multi-purpose capability suitable for about 80% of all machining operations calling for an active cutting oil. This sulfurized cutting oil also contains fatty oil for metal wetting and chlorine to provide extra anti-weld characteristics for good surface finish and tool life. It is recommended for gear hobbing, shaping and shaving; for steels of low machinability in drilling, reaming, broaching, turning, boring, forming and other severe machining operations; for automatic screw machines and turret lathes working on ferrous metals; and for hard-tomachine steels in tapping and threading.
