Purified EDM Kerosene
Ultra-purified kerosene for graphite EDM and maximum material removal rate applications
Ultra-purified kerosene for EDM in maximum material removal rate applications, especially with graphite electrodes. The very low viscosity of kerosene (1.2 cSt) allows maximum flow speed in the gap and fastest particle evacuation. Ideal for heavy EDM roughing where productivity takes priority over surface finish. Ultra-purified — low aromatic and sulphur concentration to reduce carbon deposition on the electrode. Requires reinforced ventilation due to its lower flash point.
