LUBRIKA SYNFOR FORGING LUBRICANT

DESCRIPTION

LUBRIKA SYNFOR is a completely free of graphite Hot and Warm Forging Die Lubricant especially developed to lubricate and cool dies operating in presses forging automotive parts. It is able to impart a low coefficient of friction to the die surface and this reflects in a controlled and improved metal flow and no under fillings. Its unique formulation also has release and protective properties so forged parts are removed from the dies easily and with no damage to the die surface. It wets dies even at high temperatures of up to 350°C.

Properly applied to the die cavities by spray atomization LUBRIKA SYNFOR will permit a smooth flow and release of the metal.

LUBRIKA SYNFOR is smokeless, nonflammable and has no harmful vapors.

Specific advantages offered by LUBRIKA SYNFOR include:

  • Excellent lubricity
  • Superb release
  • Efficient die filling
  • Lower associated disposal costs
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Uniform wetting of hot dies
  • Extended die life
  • Noncorrosive

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

Automotive steel forgings made in Presses and Hammers.

METHOD OF USE

LUBRIKA SYNFOR is a concentrate and must be diluted with water prior to its application to the dies. The dilution ratio has to be determined according the weight, complexity, and operating variables such as die temperature, speed of the operation, etc. Also factors such as type of atomization nozzles and characteristics, distance of application and time of application will influence the determination of the most suitable dilution ratio required. The correct dilution is made by adding water to the concentrate with moderate stirring. A starting evaluating at 1:7 (Product: water) is recommended. Dilution ratios, however, can exceed 1:10 (product: water) depending on the forging operation.

METHOD OF APPLICATION

Diluted LUBRIKA SYNFOR must be only spray applied to the die cavities. Handguns or automatic equipments such as reciprocators can be used for this purpose.

PRECAUTIONS

Reseal LUBRIKA SYNFOR containers tightly to prevent contamination. Avoid freezing.
