Frequently Asked Questions

Which Iloform grade is best for stainless deep drawing?

Iloform PN 226 is the workhorse for stainless deep drawing. For more severe draws or mandrel work on tube and pipe, Iloform TDN 81 offers higher EP performance.

Can deformation fluids be reused?

Neat-oil drawing fluids can be filtered and reused through multiple press cycles. Water-miscible types (Iloform FST 6) have a sump life similar to soluble coolants and benefit from the same CoolantCare monitoring.
