HOCUT©WATER SOLUBLE COOLANTS

Coolant Built to Cut

Machining generates heat, friction, and debris—three things that shorten tool life and slow production. HOCUT® water-soluble metal removal fluids are designed to manage all three. These coolants reduce heat at the cut, lubricate contact points, and flush chips away, helping maintain consistent performance across high-speed, high-pressure operations.

WATER SOLUBLE METAL REMOVAL FLUIDS

Performance Where It Matters

Water-soluble coolants are widely used because they balance cooling, lubrication, and cleanliness in a single system. Compared to straight oils, they dissipate heat more effectively and support higher-speed machining with less cleanup

  • Control Heat and Friction - HOCUT fluids are designed to stabilize the cutting zone—reducing heat buildup and friction that can lead to premature tool wear and inconsistent results.
  • Extend Fluid and Tool Life - Biostable formulations and strong emulsion performance help extend sump life, reducing changeouts, maintenance, and downtime across operations
  • Run Clean, Run Consistent - High detergency and tramp oil rejection help keep machines, parts, and fluids cleaner—supporting better finishes and fewer interruptions during production.
