Water-Based Die Release Lubricants
Water-Based Die Release Lubricants
DIE SLICK® water-based die lubricants contain our state-of-the-art thermodynamically reactive (heat activated) Smart Polymer Technology which offers superior protection on hot areas of the die while lightly coating cooler less demanding areas. This unique property translates to reduced solder, enhanced release and wetting characteristics while producing bright and clean castings.
DIE SLICK water-based die lubricants are available in the following:
| DIE SLICK 17 SERIES | Versatile lubricant for general die casting applications. Exceptional wetting and flow characteristics |
| DIE SLICK 45 SERIES | Heavy duty lubricant for demanding die casting operations. Superior performance with increased lubricity and reduced build-up characteristics |
| DIE SLICK AD SERIES | High performance wax-free lubricants for use with optimized spray processes. Premium solder resistance and release |
| DIE SLICK AF SERIES | High performance silicon free release agents for demanding post casting processes |
| DIE SLICK SX SERIES | Optimised for water based structural parts, where MQL products are not suitable for application |
Benefits of using DIE SLICK® release agents with Smart Polymer technology include:
Compatible Quaker Houghton Equipment Solutions
We design and build die release mixing and spray systems and so we are able to work closely with you to optimise all aspects of your die casting process to improve production efficiency, scrap rates and part quality.
Our FLUIDCAST MONO, DUAL AND MAX proportional mixing systems have been specifically developed for use with DIE SLICK® water-based die lubricants.
