Applications

N/A Astro-Cut SYN AF has been designed to provide cooling, lubrication and corrosion protection on operations that require an amine-free product or because of waste stream restriction on amines. Operations involving the grinding of coated parts or other areas where amines may be detrimental are particularly suited for this product. Astro-Cut SYN AF has been designed for machining most metals except magnesium. This product may also be used for grinding: blanchard, diamond wheel, centerless, belt, disk, etc. Note: Since this product is completely oil-free, it may be used in most coolant mist units for machining and grinding operations.
