The lubricant is required to moisten the polishing cloth or lapping disc and to rinse away the abrasion produced during polishing. Furthermore, it serves to cool the specimens. Without lubricant, the polishing medium thickens more and more during the process, as the solids content is continuously increased by the abrasion. We produce four different lubricants and diluents in 1-, 5- and 10-liter containers:
- Water-based (CoolTec I+IV)
- Alcohol-based (CoolTec II)
- Oil-based (CoolTec III)
- Anhydrous (CoolTec Orange)
