    DESCRIPTION:

    TOWERPRO 5858-E is completely hazard-free. It is a heavy-duty, emulsifiable, metalforming lubricant formulated for use on applications requiring chlorine-free chemistry. Is is effective on multi-stage forming, piercing, drawing and stamping deep draw operations that previously required highly chlorinated lubricants.

    It has unique characteristics, producing a high-strength lubricating film on metal surfaces. It provides excellent tool life without the use of chlorinated extreme pressure additives. It leaves a non-sticky film that provides in-process rust protection.

    USAGE:

    TOWERPRO 5858-E can be used as a straight concentrate, or at dilutions up to 19:1 (5%) with water. It forms an emulsion that resists bacterial attack, foul odors and is low misting. It can be used on Ferrous Metals, HSLA, Stainless Steel, and Aluminum. It can be applied by airless spray, roller coaters, and drip methods. It is easy to remove in aqueous cleaning systems using an alkaline cleaner such as TOWERKLENE 42-A.

    BENEFITS:

    1. Contains No Harzardous Ingredients
    2. Performs Heavy-Duty Metal Forming Operations
    3. Does Not Contain Chlorine
    4. Provides Excellent In-Process Rust Protection
    5. Cleans easily in Alkaline Solutions
    6. Leaves a Light Non-Sticky Residue
