Low Foaming Cutting Fluid Boosts Surface Finish



Walter Valenite's new VPLFC, a heavy duty, non-chlorinated, semi-synthetic metalworking fluid with the advanced foam control properties needed by today's high pressure systems (1,000 PSI and up), shown in action.

Walter USA, LLC announced its new Walter Valenite line of ValCool cutting fluids, VPLFC. The VPLFC is a heavy duty, non-chlorinated, semi-synthetic coolant. "The VPLFC is formulated with advanced foam control properties that are required for today's high pressure systems (1,000 PSI and up),? said a company spokesperson.

"The VPLFC provides for longer tool life, better surface finishes and reduced consumption. It provides long-term emulsion stability and excellent foam control. Less foam enhances lubricity, a plus in any application but particularly in high speed machining. Further, the fact that it is non-chlorinated helps promote better surface finishes," said a company spokesperson.

"Users report that less of the new coolant is used in certain applications when compared to other coolants, while still achieving excellent results. The new VPLFC also helps boost overall system cleanliness, rejecting tramp oils, maintaining stable pH levels, and thus extending the fluid's useful life. It is available in 5-gallon pails to 55 gallon drums," said the spokesperson.
