Product Overview

BONDERITE® L-FG F 50 is a micro-fine graphite, water based die lubricant formulated for flood or spray applications.  Suitable for difficult press work and highly automated processes including hot, warm and precision forging.

Applications

Apply by conventional spray techniques.  Supplied as a concentrate and can normally be diluted with ordinary tap water prior to use. The dilution ratio varies according to the difficulty of the job and the degree of cooling.

Important:  Add water to concentrate, not the reverse. Stir the concentrate thoroughly then slowly add one-part water while stirring until the mixture is homogenous. The remaining water may be added rapidly while stirring until the desired dilution and consistency are reached.
