TRUEGARD #lOllA CUTTING OIL is a high-performance, active cutting oil specifically engineered for use in screw machines and lathe operations such as drilling, reaming, boring, tapping, and threading on steel and steel alloys. Enhanced with a precise blend of sulfur and fat, this formulation delivers superior lubricity, film strength, and extreme pressure capabilities, ensuring reliable protection and efficiency during less severe machining tasks.

Designed to meet the demanding needs of modern machine shops, TRUEGARD #lOllA CUTTING OIL offers a viscosity that expertly balances lubricating and cooling properties. The product is manufactured using virgin petroleum oils that are carefully selected to eliminate paraffin wax fractions, reducing the risk of clogged filters and fittings. Additionally, its mild detergency helps minimize swarf buildup on machinery, promoting cleaner operation and prolonged equipment life.

 

 

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • TRUEGARD #1011A is engineered specifically for screw machine and lathe operations - including drilling, reaming, boring, tapping, and threading - on steel and steel alloys. It is formulated for less severe machining tasks rather than the most demanding heavy-duty cutting applications, so operators requiring extreme-duty performance on harder alloys should evaluate whether a more aggressive cutting oil is needed.

  • An active cutting oil contains reactive additives - in this case, a blend of sulfur and fat - that chemically bond to metal surfaces under the heat and pressure generated during cutting. This reaction forms a protective boundary layer that provides superior extreme pressure (EP) protection and film strength compared to inactive oils, which rely on physical lubrication alone. This is especially important for operations like tapping and threading where tool-to-workpiece contact is severe.

  • The product is specified for steel and steel alloys only. Active cutting oils containing reactive sulfur are known to stain or corrode non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass, and aluminum, so using TRUEGARD #1011A on those materials is not recommended.

  • Paraffin wax present in conventional base oils can solidify or deposit within coolant lines, filters, and fittings over time, restricting flow and increasing maintenance. By selecting virgin petroleum base oils that are processed to eliminate paraffin wax fractions, TRUEGARD #1011A helps keep the machine's lubrication and cooling circuits clear, reducing the risk of blockages and unplanned downtime.

  • The mild detergency helps prevent swarf (metal chips, fines, and shavings) from adhering to and accumulating on machine surfaces and components. This promotes cleaner operation, simplifies routine cleaning, and helps extend the service life of the equipment by reducing abrasive particle buildup in critical areas.

  • Yes - based on the product line, TRUEGARD #1011A Cutting Oil is also available in a 55-gallon drum, making it possible to choose a package size that fits your shop's consumption rate and storage capacity.
