Description:

Castrol Iloform TDN 86 is a highly chlorinated Extreme Pressure (EP) type oil with fatty oils and free sulphur making it ideally suited for most severe drawing conditions. At the drawing periphery when the surface of the tube bar is in contact with the die, there is a chemical reactivity on the metal surfaces whereby a nascent metallic chloride layer of molecular thickness is formed. This feature is important in high speed drawing of steel for extending the die life and improving the surface finish. 

Application:

Castrol Iloform TDN 86 is ideally suited for cold pilgering. The high percentage of stabilized chlorine incorporated in the blend enables maximum reduction per pass, simultaneously offering a high degree of finish both internally and externally. It also ensures low wear on mandrel and dies. Iloform TDN 86 is also widely used for deep drawing and cold rolling of stainless steel tubes. 

Advantages:

• High amount of Chlorinated fats

Economy of use 

Maximum reduction per pass

• Enhanced lubricity package 

High degree of internal and external finish. Reduction in frictional heat 

Lesser rejection rate

• Excellent EP package 

Very low mandrel and die wear 

Closer tolerances in improved mandrel and die life hence reduced costs.
