Neat Cutting & Grinding Oils — Castrol Ilocut, Honilo, Variocut

Neat oils deliver unmatched lubricity and surface finish for heavy-duty and precision operations where water-mix coolants fall short.

Quick Answer

Ilocut series covers single-point turning, broaching, gun-drilling and thread-cutting where flood coolant won't penetrate. Ilogrind series for creep-feed grinding, thread grinding and gear grinding. Sulphur-chlorine and sulphurised-fat additive packages selected by metal and cut severity.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose a neat oil over a water-soluble coolant?

Neat oils are the right choice when you need maximum lubricity for heavy-duty operations (broaching, gear cutting, deep-hole drilling) or a superior surface finish (grinding, honing). Water-mix coolants are better for fast-paced high-volume machining where cooling matters more than lubrication.

What is the typical life of a neat cutting oil sump?

12–24 months with good filtration and top-up discipline. CoolantCare service extends this further via oxidation and contamination monitoring.
