Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Flood coolant/cutting oil?

Your looking for whats called a neat cutting oil and they come in blue
buckets 5 gal and they are an oil not to be mixed with water and I have used
them even in below 0 weather and it still works.

Call and oil distributor in your area.

I used to get it from work when they toss it cause they had to pay to get
rid of it and now they get paid so there goes that idea.
Regards
Stan
PS if needed I can try to find the make of it

Subject: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Flood coolant/cutting oil?


Hello, wondering if anyone in the group has experience using a type of
cutting oil in there flood coolant reservoirs? I would like to get away from
the rancid smell and maintenance that goes with water based coolants. I have
a band saw, cnc lathe, and mill that I would like to find a good alternative
for. I see they make a water soluble cutting oil. Does this go bad and start
to stink? I would assume anything water based is going to have a short life
if not used frequently and maintained. My machines may sit for weeks at a
time without use. It would be nice to use them when I need to without having
to deal with the stench or dump and refill for a once in while use.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
