PRECISION MACHINING FROM
THE FIRST CUT

SEE HOW CASTROL ALUSOL DELIVERS PRECISION

Current Scenario

 

There is an increasing demand to manufacture accurate, lightweight components with tight tolerances. This is driving the use of aluminium or aluminium alloys.


However, aluminium is notoriously difficult to machine precisely. When aluminium builds up at the cutting point, quality is immediately compromised. That’s a serious problem for productivity and profitability.


Castrol’s Solution 

 

Our carefully balanced formulation of aluminium cutting oil delivers a lubricity additive between the tool edge and the workpiece to prevent aluminium build-up at the tool, even at lower concentrations.


Castrol Alusol, one of the best aluminium cutting fluid achieves precise machining of even complex aluminium components and excellent surface finish from the very first cut – even with the new generation of aluminium alloys. Black staining of Aluminum components post-machining is a very common problem that can be eliminated with Alusol because of a special passivation package in the formulation. Also, Alusol is approved by Major MTM’s, Auto OEMs and Aerospace OEMs.
