Sharp Tool
is proud to offer GrindClean water-soluble
synthetic grinding coolant for companies grinding carbide or steel. GrindClean
is a concentrated high-performance coolant designed to dramatically reduce
cobalt leaching in the machining and grinding of tungsten carbide. If you have
problems with your coolant turning pink due to cobalt leaching, then you should
try GrindClean. GrindClean is an oil-free coolant that provides fast swarf
removal, exceptional rust protection, and high cooling. Even when heavily
diluted with water, it still provides excellent protection to freshly machined
and ground surfaces. GrindClean protects both machines and working parts against
build-up of sticky residue associated with the grinding process, and contains
ingredients that wont attack aluminum fixtures. The coolant has a high cleaning
action that removes grinding fines thereby minimizing wheel loading. GrindClean
is a low foaming coolant that can be used with recycling or centrifuge systems.
GrindClean is already in use by many leading carbide and HSS tool
manufacturers throughout North America. When used in conjunction with a central
coolant system, GrindClean will increase diamond/CBN grinding wheel life and
enable the wheel to produce a high quality finish. The result is reduced
grinding wheel costs and increased customer satisfaction with the finished
product. Benefits of Grind Clean include:
- Outperforms other coolants in reducing cobalt leaching when grinding
carbide
- Exceptional rust protection
- No build-up of sticky residue
- Excellent lubricity and cooling
- No foaming or suds
- Will not attach or pit aluminum
- Quickly separates and settles carbide fines, does not allow fines to
remain in suspension
- Long shelf life (GrindClean comes premixed, no need to add powers or
solids)
- Special additives to prevent bacterial growth
- Low odor, easy to mix
- Increased diamond/CBN wheel life
- Reduced wheel loading
- Improved work piece surface finish
GrindClean is available in 1, 5 or 55-gallon containers. Please Call

Oil Pro
Oil Pro Grinding Coolant
Frequently Asked Questions

Sharp Tool is proud to offer Oil-Pro
grinding fluid/coolant. Oil-Pro is a light viscosity, mineral based oil designed
for grinding or cutting steel, carbide, quartz, and
crystal. Oil-Pro is ideal where a high lubricity, low viscosity cutting or
grinding oil is required. Oil-Pro also finds use in honing and finishing of
surgical knives and other products that require a very fine finish. The high
flash point and non-toxic, biodegradable components of Oil-Pro make it safe to
use.
Oil-Pro is approved for use by Walter Grinders and is equivalent to Mobil
Upsilon brand of cutting oil.
Oil-Pro is used by many leading carbide and HSS tool manufacturers throughout
North America. It can be used on most types of saw, tool, and rotary grinders.
Oil-Pro grinding coolant will increase both grinding wheel and grinding machine
life. In addition, the resulting surface finish will be better than grinding
with water-based coolants. The major advantages of Oil-Pro are reduced grinding
wheel costs, reduced grinder maintenance costs, and increased customer
satisfaction with the finished product. Benefits of Oil-Pro include:
Increased machine life, less grinder maintenance compared to water based
coolant
Improved work piece surface finish
Increased diamond/CBN wheel life
Excellent corrosion/rust protection
Excellent lubricity
Can filter below 1 micron without removing additives
No foaming or suds
No cobalt leaching when grinding carbide
No problems with bacterial growth
Very mild odor, translucent light brown color
Oil-Pro has a long service life if filtered properly. It has a minimum flash
point of 320 F and a specific gravity of 0.90. An air cleaning system (e.g.,
SMOG-HOG) for collecting coolant mist is recommended for grinders without a full
enclosure. All CNC automatic grinders running oil-based coolants must have a
spark arrester installed (check with the grinder manufacturer for more details).
Oil-Pro is available in 5-gallon buckets or 55-gallon drums.
