Oils for Lubricating Coolant
Any 10:1 (water to coolant) solution will work, however we recommend Baileigh B-Cool 20:1
(water to coolant) biodegradable metal cutting fluid. It has excellent cooling and heat transfer
characteristics, is non-flammable, and extends tool and machine life. Each gallon of concentrate
makes 21 gallons of coolant.
