Die Casting: Plunger Lubricants
Die casters can only be productive when their machines are running
at peak efficiency. Chem-Trend's line of conventional water-based
plunger lubricants, oil-based plunger lubricants and dry plunger
lubricants can play an integral part in making that happen. The
best technology previously available marketed under Metalstar®
, RPL® and PLP will now be available under
the Power-Lube® brand name.
Water-Based Plunger Lubricants
Chem-Trend's water-based plunger lubricants provide excellent
protection of shot sleeves and plunger tips while maintaining highly
desirable housekeeping characteristics. Applications are best accomplished
by using an internal shot sleeve lubricator.
Oil-Based Plunger Lubricants

Chem-Trend's
Power-Lube® plunger lubricants have proven to extend
shot component life in the most difficult operating conditions. |

Chem-Trend's
oil-based plunger lubricants have been a reliable fixture in the
world's major die casting facilities. But the lubricant products
of yesterday aren't those of today. Chem-Trend chemists have
brought continuous improvements to the product line to enhance finish
part quality and improve productivity. This array of products, lead
by the RPL and Metalstar® brands, can improve
part quality by reducing casting porosity. And at the heart of the
matter, all Chem-Trend's lubricants work to increase shot
component life and reduce downtime by offering superior protection
for both shot sleeves and steel and copper beryllium tips.
Dry Plunger Lubricants
When the industry embraced the benefits of dry plunger lubricant
technology, Chem-Trend was there to meet the need with Power-Lube®
and PLP brand plunger lubricants. Chem-Trend's dry
plunger lubricants offer consistent shot-to-shot profiles and improved
part quality by reducing porosity while maximizing plunger tip and
sleeve protection. The additional benefits of reduced flame and
smoke also improve a plant's overall working environment.
