NEAT FORMING & DEEP DRAWING OILS

High-performance lubricants for precision metal forming applications

Neat Forming & Deep Drawing Oils are advanced lubricants formulated to meet the demanding requirements of metal shaping, forming, and drawing processes. They support dimensional accuracy, tool life, surface quality, and throughput under high pressure and friction-intensive conditions. Blended with specialized additive systems, these oils serve automotive, aerospace, HVAC, white goods, and precision metalworking industries.

Key Features & Functional Benefits

  1. High lubricity & extreme-pressure resistance
    • Anti-wear (AW) and extreme-pressure (EP) additive packages.
    • Durable boundary films resist mechanical breakdown.
    • Promotes smooth metal flow even on thick gauges and severe draws.
  2. Residue-free, volatile options
    • Colorless, low-odor hydrocarbon grades evaporate rapidly (≈ 1 hour).
    • No post-cleaning needed; ideal for coated and non-ferrous surfaces.
  3. Water-washable & eco-friendly formulations
    • Select grades wash off with water; reduced solvent usage.
    • Available chlorine-free, halogen-free, VOC-free, and mineral-oil-free.
    • Lower environmental impact with improved operator safety.
  4. Integrated corrosion protection
    • Temporary inhibitors protect parts between stages, storage, and transfer.

Application Areas

Compatible metal types

  • Iron & steel alloys (including stainless and tool steels)
  • Aluminum & aluminum alloys (e.g., zinc-aluminum exhaust components)
  • Copper, brass & other yellow metals

Note: Certain non-mineral-oil variants are not suitable for copper or bronze.

Industrial sectors served

Sector Application Examples
Automotive Pipes, shock absorbers, fasteners, chassis & body components
White Goods Stainless sheets (e.g., 304 & 430) for appliance panels
Metalworking Multi-station cold forging, screws/bolts/nuts, precision tubing
HVAC Boilers, fan coils, furnace fittings
Aerospace & Defense High-precision forming with strict cleanliness standards

Forming operations

  • Deep drawing, cold drawing, mandrel drawing
  • Rolling, shaping, bending
  • Cutting & stamping
  • Die casting (Zamak, zinc alloys) as mold-release agents

Specialized Product Features

Volatile fluids

  • Deliver clean surfaces post-forming; no rinsing required.
  • Well-suited to galvanized, aluminum, coated, and decorative surfaces.

Multi-purpose, high-pressure lubricants

  • Engineered for heavy-duty cold drawing and bar/pipe forming.
  • Rapid formation of high-load, wear-resistant films.

OEM-approved formulations

  • Selected oils meet Daimler-Chrysler and other OEM requirements.
  • Certified for cataphoresis (e-coat) bath compatibility for paint-line acceptance.

Enhanced surface finish

  • Optimized clarity and gloss; reduces downstream finishing steps.
  • Critical for automotive trim, white-goods facings, and aerospace skins.

Environmental & Operator Safety

  • Chlorine/halogen/VOC-free options available across ranges.
  • Hydrocarbon volatile grades offer safer alternatives in confined areas.
  • Formulated to minimize mist for healthier workspaces.

Summary of Benefits

  • Superior metal flow and shaping under pressure.
  • Robust tool protection and extended equipment life.
  • Clean or minimal-residue choices for seamless downstream steps.
  • In-process rust protection for parts and tooling.
  • Meets regulatory and OEM requirements for global deployment.
  • Eco-conscious chemistries that support sustainable manufacturing.

Neat Forming & Deep Drawing Oils provide the right balance of lubrication, protection, and cleanliness for advanced forming operations. With formulations tailored to metals and industry needs, they elevate productivity, compliance, and finished-part quality in modern manufacturing.
