Cutting Oil

Cutting oil is a critical metalworking lubricant formulated to manage friction, heat, and tool stress during machining operations. It plays a vital role in maintaining dimensional accuracy and surface integrity when metals are subjected to high-speed cutting and pressure. The oil creates a lubricating and cooling film between the cutting tool and workpiece, preventing excessive temperature rise. Advanced cutting oils are blended with additives that improve lubricity, corrosion resistance, and chip removal efficiency. By reducing metal-to-metal contact, cutting oil minimizes tool wear and unexpected tool failure. It also helps flush away metal chips from the cutting zone, improving operational visibility and cleanliness. Consistent use of cutting oil results in smoother finishes and reduced rework rates. It supports higher production efficiency by allowing machines to operate at optimal speeds. Overall, cutting oil is indispensable for precision engineering and high-quality metal fabrication.
