Product Range Trennex® Die Lubricants

Die Lubricants Water Based

Water-based lubricants have been the standard in aluminum and magnesium die casting for decades. Trennex® offers a variety of custom-made products for all applications. Our product range extends from wax-yielding high-performance lubricants all the way to modern wax-free products and satisfies the high demands of quality die casting. In recent years, water-based products have also been developed for zinc die casting as an alternative to the solvent-based lubricants usually used.
