Q8Oils has launched Q8 Brunel, its latest
revolution in water-soluble machining
and grinding fluids.
The Q8 Brunel range has been developed
to out-perform all other fluids and has
already been successfully tried and tested
with manufacturers across Europe.
It is formulated to be fully compliant with
the latest European industry legislation,
providing a range of products that are
free from boron, boric acid, chlorinated
paraffin, secondary amine, formaldehyde
releasing biocides and nitrites.
Introducing the new Q8 Brunel range,
Q8Oils product line manager Stuart Duff
said: “Following extensive research and
both laboratory and field-trial testing,
we have reinvented the way in which
the industry approaches soluble metal
working fluid chemistry by developing a
completely new approach that focuses
on three key customer requirements –
product performance, environmental
protection and operator health.”
He insists that, subject to customer
requirements, significant improvements
to tool life and surface finish are
achievable, and claims that: “Q8 Brunel
is so advanced that it has the potential
to reduce the operating costs for every
customer.”
The result is a revolution in high
performance, water-soluble machining
and grinding fluids with advanced
safety features. Thousands of hours
have been invested in laboratory testing
and field trials to ensure Q8 Brunel is a
revolution in soluble metal working fluid
technology, and it is fully compliant with
European environmental and chemical
legislation.
All Q8 Brunel grades comply with TRGS
611 and are suitable for use in hard
and soft water where they display low
foaming properties.
They are suitable for high speed
machining applications and the
demanding fluid delivery pressures found
on modern machine tools; it is here where
significant tool life improvements are
achievable.
