Product Catalog
Castrol Hysol® MB 50 is a high performance soluble metal working fluid recommended for machining all grades of aluminum as well as ferrous alloys. Hysol MB 50 provides the performance of heavy duty soluble oils without the unpleasant shop environments and high usage rates of traditional fluids. Hysol MB 50 is formulated without chlorine, sulfur and formaldehyde releasing agents. Its performance can exceed products which contain extreme pressure additives. The tight, stable emulsion of Hysol MB 50 provides extended system life and product stability.
