CRC® Trefolex Cutting Paste 500 ML

Part Number: 3060
Product Description
Trefolex Cutting Paste is a green coloured, active cutting compound containing a colloid. It melts slowly as frictional heat is generated. It maintains efficient lubrication throughout operations such as pipe screwing, hack sawing, tapping and reaming. It is suitable for all users of hand tools. Trefolex Cutting Paste prolongs the life of the tool. It will not corrode steel nor affect aluminium. Although the surface of copper and brass is darkened, the metal suffers no detrimental effect. It is ideal for use with stainless steel.

Key Features:

• Extends Tool Life: Drastically reduces wear and tear on cutting edges, saving you money on replacement bits and blades.

• Superior Finish: Prevents metal "pick-up" and galling, resulting in smoother, more professional threads and cleaner holes.

• Stays Where It’s Needed: The thick paste consistency clings to the tool and the workpiece—even on vertical surfaces—preventing the mess and waste associated with liquid oils.

• Extreme Pressure (EP) Lubrication: Formulated to handle the high stress of hand-tapping and threading in tough metals.

• Increases Efficiency: Lowers the torque required for cutting, making manual work faster and less physically demanding.

Ideal Applications:

• Tapping & Threading: Perfect for manual or machine-assisted threading of nuts and bolts.

• Drilling: Essential for drilling into stainless steel, carbon steel, and other hard alloys.

• Hacksawing: Applying to the blade ensures faster, straighter cuts and prevents blade snapping.

• Reaming: Ensures precision finishing of bores and holes.
