Compare Oemeta MICROTOL minimum-quantity lubricants
Compare MICROTOL FA 20 and MICROTOL EC 32 for an MQL application. Minimum-quantity lubrication depends on the fluid, delivery equipment, tool and process working together. It is not a direct fluid-only replacement for every flood-coolant operation.
Confirm the delivery equipment
Identify the MQL system, internal or external delivery, tool and machine requirements. Check the equipment supplier’s lubricant specifications against the exact MICROTOL product. Confirm the prescribed preparation and metering method rather than applying flood-coolant mixing instructions.
Assess the machining task
Record the material, operation, depth and chip-removal requirements. Review whether the process needs cooling or flushing that the proposed MQL arrangement can provide. Evaluate the result in the actual setup rather than assuming dry chips, longer tool life or a particular consumption saving.
Include the downstream process
Review residual lubricant on parts, cleaning and subsequent assembly or finishing. Follow the applicable machine and fluid handling instructions. MQL does not by itself establish zero residue, zero waste or that a washing step can be removed.
Frequently asked questions
Can I fill a standard flood-coolant tank with MICROTOL?
Do not treat an MQL lubricant as a direct replacement in a flood-coolant system. Confirm the equipment and exact product instructions for the intended application.
Which MICROTOL product should I choose?
Compare the delivery-system requirements, workpiece, operation and product technical data. Send the MQL equipment model and application details for help reviewing the two listed options.
