ANTIFOAM NS

METALWORKING FLUID ADDITIVE

 

ANTIFOAM NS is an aliphatic non-silicone defoamer, which can be used to temporarily control excessive foam.

 

OPERATIONS:

 

Add ANTIFOAM NS to CIMCOOL® metalworking fluid mixes as recommended by CIMCOOL® Technical Services. Use in mix when foam is a problem.

 

A typical use would be to temporarily control foam in a new charge (fresh mix). Typically, as metalworking fluid mixes age they become less foamy.

 

Note: Overuse can create additional foam.

 

APPLICATION:

 

For the recommended dilution range (see below). Shake or stir prior to using.

 

ANTIFOAM NS can be used with soluble oil, semisynthetic, or synthetic mixes.

 

Pour ANTIFOAM NS directly into the “clean” side of central filtration system where contamination is the lowest to maximize effectiveness.
