Gas-to-Liquids
Innovative cutting and grinding oils
The new Gas-to-Liquid (GTL) cutting and grinding oils are from the latest generation of machining oils. In the GTL manufacturing process, natural gas is converted into an extremely pure, synthetic oil. This process ensures that the oil is free from organic nitrogen, heavy metals, zinc and chlorine compounds.
The resulting GTL products form the OEMETOL GT range of oils. They are characterised by a very high flash point and low emissions. These qualities ensure good occupational safety, and lower consumption. Compared to conventional mineral or hydrocracked oils, the higher lubricating performance and low foaming behaviour of the GTL oils, reduce wear and improve process reliability.
Benefits at a glance
- Selected EP- and AW-additives deliver an excellent lubricating performance
- Odour neutral
- Very low evaporation loss

Neat Cutting and Grinding Oils
The neat oils from the HYCUT and OEMETOL product families are based on high-quality base oils and cutting-edge high-performance additives. They are desig¬ned for demanding machining operations and are compatible with a wide range of materials. Excellent lubricity ensures minimum tool wear and high cutting speed. First-rate washing action guarantees cleaner parts and machines. The low-odour and low-emission products contain no zinc, heavy metals or chlorine. HYCUT neat oils also biodegrade quickly and are made from renewable resources.
