Die lubricant, free of graphite
Description
LUBRODAL F 84 HM-PLUS is a water miscible die lubricant, free of graphite. It shows excellent propulsive effects and forms a brown adhesive releasing film of high lubricity upon the engraved surfaces.
Fields of application
LUBRODAL F 84 HM-PLUS is used for hot forging of steel, in particular if graphite containing die lubricants cannot be used due to hygienic reasons.
LUBRODAL F 84 HM-PLUS is especially designed for hammer forging
Method of application
LUBRODAL F 84 HM-PLUS is a concentrate and must be diluted with water before application. It can be applied via suitable spraying systems or by spray pistols.
A strong spray jet with adjustable throughputs of the nozzles as well as an adjustable air-fluid ratio are required.
Note
Standard values for the dilution of LUBRODAL F 84 HM-PLUS with water:
Difficult transformations : 1 : 2 – 5
Transformations of average difficulty : 1 : 5 – 20
Simple transformations : 1 : 10 – 30
The optimal ratio of dilution has to be determined in practice.
