Cutting oils
Metal cutting oil
Non-soluble straight cutting oil
Neat cutting lubricants
Neat Oils (Straight Oils): Mineral, synthetic or Biodegradable synthetic esters based, used without dilution, offering high lubrication for heavy cutting, drilling, and tapping.
Non-soluble metal cutting machine cooling oils, commonly known as neat oils or straight cutting oils, are mineral, synthetic or vegetable-based lubricants that do not mix with water. They offer superior lubrication and tool life, making them ideal for heavy-duty, slow-speed cutting, drilling, milling, and grinding, particularly on non-ferrous metals, steel, and aluminum. These fluids excel in reducing friction and heat while providing excellent surface finish and corrosion inhibition.
Molylub CutOil series cutting oils
Molylub CutOil series metal removal oils are critical components in metalworking processes. Acting as a lubricant and coolant, these fluids reduce friction between the workpiece and the machine tool. They permorms as
- Increase in tool life
- Improved surface finish
- Enhanced fluid life
- Optimized cycle time
- Improved environmental impact from low consumption, foam and soap reduction, elimination of harmful chemicals, and more

Metal cutting oil application:
The product is used undiluted for medium heavy, chip forming operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
Neat cutting oils are fluids usually based on mineral oils and used for cutting without further dilution i.e. as supplied by the manufacturer. They are generally blends of mineral oils and other additives.
Neat oils can be used for applications from light machining to heavy-duty operations such as gear hobbing, broaching, turning, honing and drilling.
- Advanced additive technology gives high extreme pressure (EP) lubricity properties and lowering production costs through extended tool life.
- Improved surface finish and increased cutting speeds leads to improvement of process efficiency
- Multi-metal machining using our superior additive technology provides opportunity for product consolidation
- Chlorine and heavy metal free formulation improves the environmental profile and reduces disposal costs
Neat cutting oils are used in a variety of machining operations e.g. grinding, turning, milling, broaching, drilling, tapping, gear cutting etc. primarily to provide cooling and lubrication which lead to good tool life and appropriate surface finish of the components being machined.
Neat cutting oils as opposed to soluble or synthetic cutting fluids provide high levels of lubrication to help reduce frictional heat as the cutting tool penetrates the metal or rubs against the swarf. Neat oils also save energy by reducing cutting force
