Our Products
Our Complete range of products are ESPON-DLO Hot Forging Lubricant and ESPON-GK3 Hot Forging Lubricant.
ESPON-DLO is an oil-in-graphite die lubricant, proven useful for medium to heavy, complex parts in hot forging hammers and presses.
ESPON-DLO is oil-based lubricant with graphite. It has proven to achieve ease of forging and increased die life in small to medium complexity forgings in hammers and presses. Graphite used in the lubricant contains particle size that is tested to withstand impact load of forging hammers. Extra pressure additives present in oil provide excellent lubricity and easy flowability.
ESPON-DLO is to be used directly or mixed with hydraulic oil or LDO in 1:3 up to 1:7 dilution ratio, depending upon forged part complexity and weight. This die lubricant is preferred by hammer forge shops that have been using polluting oils as die lubricants and are facing problems of forging sticking and low die life.
Benefits of using ESPON-DLO oil-in-graphite forging die lubricant are:

ESPON-GK3 is a graphite-based, water-miscible die lubricant, proven useful for heavy forgings and extrusions in hot forging presses and hammers.
ESPON-GK3 is graphite-based and miscible in water. It has proven useful in replacing oil as lubricant in medium to heavy, high complexity forgings in forging presses, hot extrusion and forging hammers. In this lubricant, graphite of very fine particle size is used in order to provide excellent lubricity in complex forgings and extrusions.
ESPON-GK3 is to be mixed with water in 1:10 up to 1:30 dilution ratio, depending upon forged part complexity, weight and method of die lubrication. This die lubricant is preferred by press, extrusion and hammer forge shops that are seeking best die life and good surface finish of forged parts.
Benefits of using ESPON-GK3 graphite-based, water-miscible forging die lubricant are:
