COOLANT GUIDE
SUCCESSFUL MACHINING OPERATIONS DEPEND ON
CORRECT COOLANT APPLICATION
TURNING
•
•
•
In continuous cut, the application of coolant is recommended for all workpiece
materials.
If there is interrupted cut, use dry operation when machining material groups P, M, K
and H.
Coolant is always recommended for High-Temp Alloys (Group S) and Aluminum
(Group N).
MILLING
•
In dry operations, the usage of “air blow” is always recommended in order to evacuate
the chips which can accumulate causing tool breakage and problems with surface
finishing.
DRILLING
•
Coolant in drilling is always recommended independent of workpiece material as it
helps chip evacuation, improves hole quality and increases tool life.

When machining Duplex Stainless Steels, both wet and dry operations should
be considered, depending on variables in the machining process.
