Die Casting: Plunger Lubricants

Dry Plunger Lubricants

When the industry embraced the benefits of dry plunger lubricant technology, Chem-Trend was there to meet the need with Power-Lube^? and PLP brand plunger lubricants. Chem-Trend's dry plunger lubricants offer consistent shot-to-shot profiles and improved part quality by reducing porosity while maximizing plunger tip and sleeve protection. The additional benefits of reduced flame and smoke also improve a plant's overall working environment.

Chem-Trend's oil-based plunger lubricants have been a reliable fixture in the world's major die casting facilities. But the lubricant products of yesterday aren't those of today. Chem-Trend chemists have brought continuous improvements to the product line to enhance finish part quality and improve productivity. This array of products, lead by the RPL and Metalstar^? brands, can improve part quality by reducing casting porosity. And at the heart of the matter, all Chem-Trend's lubricants work to increase shot component life and reduce downtime by offering superior protection for both shot sleeves and steel and copper beryllium tips.

Oil-Based Plunger Lubricants

Chem-Trend's water-based plunger lubricants provide excellent protection of shot sleeves and plunger tips while maintaining highly desirable housekeeping characteristics. Applications are best accomplished by using an internal shot sleeve lubricator.

Water-Based Plunger Lubricants

Die casters can only be productive when their machines are running at peak efficiency. Chem-Trend's line of conventional water-based plunger lubricants, oil-based plunger lubricants and dry plunger lubricants can play an integral part in making that happen. The best technology previously available marketed under Metalstar^? , RPL^? and PLP will now be available under the Power-Lube^? brand name.
