FLUIDS & TOOL CARE
CUTTING FLUIDS
Fluids play a minor role in rotary broaching. Any type of water or oil based fluid is acceptable. The
chip is a flowing type and the amount of heat generated is very minimal.
When internal rotary broaching in blind holes, fluids should be applied on the broaching tool
tip prior to contacting workpiece and not inside of workpiece pilot hole. Trapped fluid sometimes
is unable to escape causing inability to broach to full depth. Slater Tools offers vent holes and
double vent holes for customers who are concerned about trapped fluids. Opening your pre-drill
hole to larger than the minor diameter of form as recommended will alleviate pressure from fluids.
For external rotary broaching, fluids may be applied prior to or continuously on the workpiece
diameter.
LUBRICATION OF HOLDER
Lubricate every few hours of continued usage. After lubrication, hand rotate spindle to relieve
pressure caused by greasing. Slater Tools offers and recommends Mobiltemp SHC 32©. This is a
clay thickened, synthetic, dark red grease. Do not use grease containing graphite. Mobiltemp SHC
32© is available from Slater Tools.
