Cutting paste is a high-performance neat product for medium and severe cutting operations (drilling, tapping, cutting, etc.). It is suitable for machine ferrous and nonferrous metals. Cutting paste provides exceptional film strength, adhesion, and extreme pressure properties.
A Cutting Paste has 2 great features:
1. It keeps the tip of the drill a bit cool and so stops it from heating up and becoming blunt.
2. It lubricates the bit where it meets the lintel and lubricates the area so that the bit remains effective whilst cutting into the lintel.
To use just pre-drill the recess to the lintel, then get a brand new bit and dip the tip in the paste to ensure a good coating.
This should make the task of drilling into the lintel much easier and ensure you get a good clean hole for your fixings. Make sure you get as far through the lintel as you can so that you can have a strong fixing for the blind to hang from. If you keep it too weak then you have a high chance of the blind you have installed falling.
Your benefits when using Cutting paste metal lube:
- Reduce friction and tool wear
- Assist in the rapid removal of heat
- Lubricate the cutting tool and any metal being cut
- Works in overhead applications
- Speed up the cutting process
Extreme pressure concentration provides accurate hole lubrication.
Excellent general-purpose paste lubricant when drilling, tapping, taps, countersinks, reamers, and broach cutters.
Chlorine-free for safer use.
Suitable for use with all grades of steel including Stainless Steel & Aluminium.
