We have obtained qualification for HYCUT CF 21, in combination with Additive BF, in accordance with Boeing BAC 5008, Sections 12.5 and 12.6. This means that our two-component metalworking fluid system is qualified for use in appropriately specified machining processes involving titanium, steel and aluminium alloys within the Boeing environment.

With the BAC 5008 qualification, we are expanding the range of applications for HYCUT CF 21 + Additive BF in aerospace manufacturing. This provides suppliers within the Boeing supply chain with a further qualified metalworking fluid system for demanding machining processes.

Flexible two-component system for demanding processes

Our HYCUT system is based on a two-component principle, in which lubrication performance and system stability can be controlled separately. Unlike conventional water-miscible metalworking fluids, the lubricating component and the stabilising functions can be adapted independently of one another to the specific process.

If, for example, a machining operation requires higher lubrication performance, this can be specifically adjusted without simultaneously increasing the concentration of the entire additive package. Parameters such as corrosion protection, pH stability and foaming behaviour can be controlled independently of this.

HYCUT CF 21 is a mineral oil-free, high-performance metalworking fluid based on synthetic esters. In combination with Additive BF, the system combines high machining performance with good separation of foreign oil, corrosion protection and foam control.

More applications in aerospace manufacturing

Qualification in accordance with BAC 5008 confirms the suitability of our two-component principle for manufacturing environments where material compatibility, process reliability and reproducible results play a key role.

Particularly when dealing with different materials, varying machining conditions or centrally supplied systems, the separate control of lubrication performance and system stability offers additional flexibility.

We have been developing and producing metalworking fluids since 1916. From our headquarters in Uetersen, near Hamburg, we develop solutions for demanding manufacturing processes in sectors including aerospace, automotive, mechanical engineering and medical technology.
