HEAT TRANSFER FLUID 70 (HT70)

HT 70 is formulated using pure high-quality paraffinic base oils with a good natural viscosity index (VI) with clear, light yellow colour and excellent colour stability.
HT 70’s neutral nature provides for naturally low corrosive tendencies.
HT 70 is ideal for band-saw lubrication in sawmills. Band-saws run vertically and the cut precision is determined by guides through which the band runs. Friction must be reduced and it is also necessary to prevent sawdust and gum from sticking to the saw blade and then jamming the guides. Diesel fuels, heating oil, stove oil and kerosene have all been used in the past because they will lubricate the saw blade and will wick easily to the applicator pads but the friction caused in cutting the wood and sliding through the guides causes such products to smoke and even catch fire.
