Applications

N/A Variocut D 249 is specially designed for deep-hole drilling (or gun drilling) applications on difficult-to-machine alloys, including high alloy steel and stainless steel. It is also suitable for high surface speed machining including form and crush grinding on alloy steel and stainless steel. Variocut D 249 contains active sulfur and is not compatible with yellow metals

Features and Benefits

N/A
  • Advanced additive technology and EP additives give high lubricity properties and lower production costs through extended tool life
  • Extremely high anti-weld properties prevent burnishing or tearing wall finish; frequently eliminates need for further finishing
  • Low viscosity and excellent wetting characteristics reduce drag out and result in lower product usage
  • Good filtering characteristics and high oxidation stability increase product lifetime
  • Our chlorine and heavy metal free formulation improves the environmental profile and reduces disposal costs
  • Contains ester, active and inactive sulfur, and phosphorous additives
