• Highly resistant to micro-organisms, bacteria and fungi
• Excellent cooling and lubrication performance
• Low foaming

LOCTITE LB 8711
LOCTITE LB 8711 (known as LOCTITE PENETRATING ) is a brown, thin, solvent-based, liquid aerosol lubricant, standard ‘tool’ for disassembly and assembly of machinery, piping, valves and other metal fitted parts. As a lubricant it deposits a thin, oily coating that displaces water and moisture under the most severe conditions. It also prevents rust and allows for smooth movement of metal parts.

• Prevents rust and allows for smooth movement of metal parts

LOCTITE LB 8040
LOCTITE LB 8040 is a special mineral oil designed to free rusted, corroded and seized parts. The shock-freezing effect will cool parts instantly down to -43C and cause microscopic cracks in the layer of rust. This allows the lubricating ingredients to wick directly into the rust by capillary action. The product leaves a thin film on the released parts that lubricates and prevents rust. It is used for emergency repair, as it releases rusted, corroded and seized components.

• Universal application
• Bactericide-free
• Highly resistant to micro-organisms, bacteria and fungi
• Excellent cooling and lubrication performance
• Low foaming

LOCTITE TG 100
LOCTITE TG 100 is recommended for high-temperature heat transfer in normal applications. It is used between heat generating devices and the surfaces to which they are mounted or other heat dissipating surfaces. This product delivers excellent thermal resistance, offers high thermal conductivity and virtually no evaporation over a wide operating temperature range. It is nonflammable, oxidation resistant and does not promote rust or corrosion.

Henkel’s Bonderite Dualcys Process is fast establishing itself as a game changer for greater efficiency and safety in machining and cleaning. Two years after it was first introduced to the metalworking market, Henkel’s innovative Bonderite duaLCys process has proven its superior cost-efficiency and sustainability over conventional cooling lubrication and cleaning processes. Most recently, the process demonstrated these advantages in a demanding precision tool machining project at German customer Mapal.

Bonderite duaLCys is part of Henkel’s comprehensive portfolio of process solutions for the metalworking industry that can be tailored to the precise needs of customers across their entire value chain from casting and machining to assembly. The innovative duaLCys technology offers significant improvements in all competitive criteria, including time, fluid and energy consumption as well as product quality and process safety. Essentially, it leverages the synergies between the process fluids by recycling the cleaner into the lubricant bath rather than discarding it as waste.

Inspired by the bactericide-free duaLCys technology, Henkel has developed an entire range of standard and specialised, one-component products:

• Bonderite L-MR 20717 is the all-rounder, suitable for nearly every machining operation, to include a wide variety of operations and materials.

• Bonderite L-MR 21164 is designed for the machining of various specialised materials such as brass, copper, zinc-coated, aluminium alloys, and pure magnesium. It also provides stability in very hard water conditions.

All the products are free of both boron and formaldehyde, and offer excellent bio -stability, corrosion protection, high lubricity and good cleaning ability. Featuring very fine dispersion, they also function well in a wide range of water hardness and applications, and deliver improved sustainability as well as significant cost savings.
Over all systems and customer installations in the past 18 months, Bonderite duaLCys has reduced the cooling lubricant consumption by 60 percent. The process has been widely adopted for almost all metal substrates throughout the automotive industry and is fast entering other market segments.

Henkel’s duaLCys process utilises the synergy between a lubricant and a cleaner: Bonderite C-NE 10466 high-performance, water-based neutral cleaner, and Bonderite L-MR 21466 cutting fluid. The cleaner produces no foaming in most common water hardness, provides excellent corrosion protection and can be used at room temperature. The machining fluid is a finely dispersed lubricant. Both are free of boron and bactericides and have very strong bio stability. The system is suitable for most metal substrates, including steel, stainless steel, cast iron and aluminium alloys.

The Bonderite duaLCys process requires less water and saves energy by allowing the cleaner bath to operate at a reduced temperature.

In addition to minimising waste while delivering low reject rates and high surface quality, Bonderite duaLCys also offers improved working conditions resulting from the use of safer, more predictable solutions. In the automotive industry, the process can provide a competitive edge to OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers and machining companies alike by enabling a more cost-effective, sustainable way of manufacturing metal parts such as powertrain components, wheels, HVAC compressors and other machined parts.

“The Bonderite duaLCys process is a unique concept in the area of machining and in-process cleaning for the metalworking market,” adds Desinger. “Recycling the cleaning fluid instead of throwing it away, and making use of its synergies with the water-soluble cutting fluid, results in an excellent combination of high lubricity, superior part cleanliness and excellent corrosion protection.”
Enhanced lubrication for longer tool life

Machining tools last much longer in operations using Bonderite duaLCys, thanks to its much higher lubricity as well as its superior cleaning capability, compared to conventional products. The lubricant also features pre-cleaning properties due to its combined formulation. Operations can save up to 40 per cent in process costs and reduce lubricant drag-out by as much as 70 per cent.
