TRIM Cutting & Grinding Fluids SC520/1 General Purpose Semisynthetic Fluid Concentrate, 1 gal Jug

Works well. No smell. Keeps lathe and mill clean

Mixed 60 mL to 32 oz water. Working well on mild steel,aluminum and cast iron. Corrosion inhibitor works very well with no sticky residue on parts

I dont see any rust anywhere for couple of days so thats good, but i suspect its only because of a high concentration recommended by the MFG. Something like 32 to 64 parts water kind weird number if you ask me, not exactly sure but its even more weird that this, trust me. Basically i ended up mixing 1 part solution to 2 parts water. I used distilled water just to be safe. Its cheap and clean. it sat for 3 days wet, no rust anywhere so i think we are good on rust concerns.

I like the ease of use, lubricity, smell and clean up. I have had no issues with this lubricant and no rust issues either.

Been using it for a while machine is not rusting

Wide range of effective concentration. Stays emulsified well with intermittent use a few weeks in between. Has almost no smell and hasn’t cause any skin issues. Protects the metal well, the mild steel filings I left on my bandsaw have little to no rust which was surprising to me.

Its hard to figure out mix ratio, but with enough reserch most places say 3 to 6%.. But to eliminate machine rust I go closer to10%

I use this in my band saw. Great product. Flows as it should, almost films, and has excellent corrosion inhibitors. Also does an excellent job clearing the shavings away from the cut. I do run it a little thicker than they recommend since I dont have a high volume shop waste is not an issue. Highly recommend this.

5 star product and seller.

Does what you need it to do.
