Product catalog summary
Description
Castrol Alusol A is a high-performance semi-synthetic soluble metal working fluid designed for machining aerospace aluminium alloys (2000, 5000, 6000, and 7000 series) without causing staining issues typical of conventional fluids.
Application
This fluid is suitable for all machining operations, including grinding, and is particularly effective in high-speed tasks like profile milling, turning, drilling, reaming, and tapping. It can also be used on aluminium silicon alloys such as LM25 and ferrous metals, making it ideal for operations where aluminium alloys are predominant but other metals are also machined.
Features and Benefits
  • Contains lubricity additives for excellent machining performance and improved surface finish.
  • Corrosion inhibited to prevent staining and corrosion of components, machines, and fixtures.
  • Resists bacterial and fungal infections, extending coolant life.
  • Excellent wetting properties reduce coolant drag out and keep machine tools and components clean.
  • Versatile for mixed metal machining.
  • Low odour and pleasant to use, making it operator-friendly.
  • Free from chlorine, nitrite, and phenol, eliminating disposal problems after splitting.
  • Stable in use, maintaining performance throughout coolant life for consistent component quality.
Typical Physical Characteristics
  • Concentrate Appearance: Amber
  • Emulsion Appearance: Semi-translucent
  • Relative Density @ 20ºC: 0.989
  • pH @ 5% Concentration: 8.9
  • Refractometer Correction Factor: 1.05
  • Recommended Concentrations: Grinding 4%, General Machining 5-8%, Reaming and Severe Operations 8-12%

Semi Synthetic Soluble Metal Working Fluid DESCRIPTION Castrol Alusol A is a high performance soluble cutting fluid specifically formulated for machining aerospace aluminium alloys (2000, 5000, 6000 and 7000 series) without the staining problems that are encountered with conventional soluble cutting fluids. APPLICATION Castrol Alusol A is suitable for all machining operations including grinding.Its value is shown particularly in high speed machining tasks such as profile milling and also in turning, drilling, reaming and tapping. Castrol Alusol A can also be used on aluminium silicon alloys such as LM25 and ferrous metals. It is therefore ideally suited to manufacturing operations where aluminium alloys predominate but where other metals are machined.
