Advanced Water-Based Forging Release Agent for Aluminum Die Lubrication

Advanced Water-Based Forging Release Agent for Aluminum Die Lubrication

Product Description
LubeKote 3008 is a premium water-based forging release agent engineered specifically for aluminum forging operations. Formulated with colloidal graphite and extreme pressure (EP) additives, it delivers superior die lubrication, prevents premature mold wear, and optimizes metal flow. This high-performance forging release agent creates a resilient thermal film that adheres to hot die surfaces, reducing friction coefficients and extending tool life while ensuring clean part ejection.

Key Advantages
✔️ Exceptional Lubricity – Minimizes sticking and galling for flawless part release.
✔️ Superior Film Formation – Uniform, durable coating withstands extreme forging temperatures.
✔️ Extended Film Longevity – Reduces reapplication frequency for higher productivity.
✔️ Low Residue – Simplifies post-forging cleaning processes.
✔️ Operator-Safe Formula – Non-toxic, water-based, and free of hazardous components.

Technical Specifications (Concentrate)

Application Guidelines

• Dilution Ratio: 1:1 to 1:3 (Concentrate:Water) – adjust based on part complexity/size.

• Spray Parameters (External Nozzle):

  • Diluted Product Pressure: 1–2 bar

  • Air Pressure: 3–4 bar

  • Spray Distance: 20–40 cm (ensure uniform coverage)

• Critical Tip: Agitate diluted solution continuously for consistent performance.

Storage & Handling

• Store in sealed containers at 5–40°C (41–104°F).

• Avoid direct sunlight and moisture.

• Shelf Life: 12 months (settling may occur – shake/stir thoroughly before use).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes LubeKote 3008 an ideal forging release agent?
A: Its colloidal graphite + EP additive formula provides unmatched high-temperature lubrication, reduces die wear by 40%+, and enhances aluminum flow – critical for complex forgings.

Q: How does it improve forging efficiency?
A: Extended film life lowers reapplication needs, while low residue cuts post-process cleaning time by 30%.
