Molycut Metal Cutting Spray 400ml Aerosol - M420

Molycut is a specialist cutting fluid brand producing molybdenum disulphide-based metal cutting compounds, pastes, and sprays designed for tapping, threading, reaming, broaching, and deep-hole drilling operations. The molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) additive provides extreme-pressure lubrication that reduces tool wear and heat generation in high-contact-stress cutting applications where conventional cutting oils are insufficient.

Molycut cutting compounds and sprays deliver extreme-pressure lubrication at the cutting edge during tapping, threading, reaming, and similar high-contact operations. The MoS2 chemistry forms a low-friction barrier between the tool and workpiece, reducing built-up edge, tool breakage, and surface tearing in difficult-to-machine materials including stainless steel, high-tensile alloys, and cast iron.

Where this product is used

Molycut cutting compounds are used in precision and heavy metal cutting operations:

• Tapping and threading operations in stainless steel, titanium, and high-tensile materials where standard oils cause tool failure.
• Reaming and broaching where surface finish quality and dimensional accuracy depend on consistent lubrication at the cutting edge.
• Die and mould machining where deep-cavity cutting generates high tool-contact pressures requiring extreme-pressure protection.

Key specifications

Selecting the right option

The compound (paste) form is applied directly to the tap or die before each cut, providing maximum lubrication concentration at the contact zone. The spray form suits applications where brush application is impractical or where a lighter film is sufficient, such as reaming and light tapping in mild steel. Select by container size based on frequency of use.
