Areas of application

Lubrication for thermoforming processes, e.g. drop-forging, hot extrusion, hot rolling or hot bending of steel and non-ferrous metals
Thin-film lubrication of sliding surfaces of all kinds on production machines, e.g. column guides of forging presses

Advantages and benefits

Excellently suited for improving workpiece surfaces and increasing tool service life
Highly effective due to optimum solid lubricants with good separating effect
Broad range of uses for various thermoforming processes
Low consumption due to thin-film lubrication
Marked separating and lubricating functions in all temperature phases
Free of graphite, which can lead to carburising of tool and workpiece

Technical specifications

Applications

For best adhesion, clean contamination and other lubricants from slide surfaces. Best way is to clean mechanically first and then with OKS 2610 or OKS 2611 universal cleaning agent. Use a brush, spatula or similar to apply evenly a suitable quantity of paste onto surface. The paste will also act as a sealant. Do not use paste instead of grease and mix only with suitable lubricants.
