Varcool 3020

VARCOOL 3020 is the latest addition to Varol’s very successful 3000 range of long-life coolants. The product is fully protected against aluminium staining, making it ideal for machining aerospace alloys as well as titanium, steel and cast iron. The product has been laboratory tested against all commonly used aerospace aluminium types.

VARCOOL 3020 is a biocide free formulation and therefore has excellent operator acceptance and overcomes concerns related to the BPD (Biocide Product Directive) and regulations concerning formaldehyde release biocides. Having been formulated for use in medium to very hard water areas it overcomes issues associated with instability, corrosion or sticky soap deposits. These problems are caused by water evaporation leaving calcium and magnesium salts to build up in the coolant. It is this salt build up that eventually destabilises emulsions and causes the problems that many areas of the UK especially the South Coast endure.

VARCOOL 3020 incorporates the latest performance additives; the product also exhibits excellent lubricity characteristics to provide both good tool life and surface finish. The productis especially formulated to remain clean and stable in the hardest of waters without excessive soap formation and is highly resistant to bacteria formation whilst exhibiting excellent corrosion resistance and operator acceptability
