Trim 229 Synthetic Coolant
Description
TRIM 229 is a synthetic coolant that delivers maximum chemical corrosion inhibition on ferrous materials with no residual film at the lowest possible cost. TRIM 229 is often used in surface grinding where maximum cooling and minimum foam are desirable. TRIM 229 is also used in other situations including: water tables on plasma torches, leak detection dip tanks, abrasive cut-off machines, and water-jet cutting systems.Additional Information

| Additional Information | C118 is not recommended in machine tools that rely on coolant splash to lubricate the mechanical portions of the machine tool; e.g., older screw machines, etc., Foam may increase if the temperature is below 80°F (27°C) at the point of agitation., C118 is not recommended on materials (i.e., magnesium or zirconium) without special precautions., This product is a superior cleaning agent so it may "wash out" dirt and residues when a machine is first charged; a thorough cleaning of older machines is required when installing this product for the first time., The minimum recommended concentration is 5% on cast iron, 4% on steel, and 5% in glass grinding., Concentrations above 7.5% provide the best corrosion inhibition, tool life, and sump life; however, on-site testing is usually the best way to set your concentration. |
