FUCHS ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 Achieves Rolls-Royce Approval
FUCHS Lubricants (UK) plc is proud to announce that > ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 has achieved full approval to Rolls-Royce CSS 129/131, a significant milestone that underlines the product’s ability to support customers in operating to the highest standards, as well as FUCHS’ commitment to technical excellence.
Designed for high-performance metal machining, ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 is a high-quality, boron-free, > water-miscible cutting fluid that supports demanding applications across aerospace, medical manufacturing, semiconductor technology and other precision industries. This latest approval reinforces its position as a next-generation solution engineered for modern manufacturing environments.
Moving Beyond Legacy Limitations
For many manufacturers, reliance on legacy coolant formulations to maintain OEM approvals may limit productivity in the modern workplace. Older technologies with reduced lubricity effect component finish and may require increased tank-side maintenance or more frequent coolant changeouts which result in higher waste generation. These are key contributing factors to poor quality, reduced machine utilisation and unpredictable production rates and costs.
ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 was developed specifically to address these challenges. Using our novel lubricity package, our modern chemistry has been subjected to cytotoxicity testing by the Medical Technology Industry and meets today’s stringent OEM, EH&S testing and compliance requirements. In all sectors, our ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 has enabled users to achieve higher performance machining across a wide range of operations.
Paul Tierney, Industrial Technical Manager for FUCHS UK said “Our ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 product has performed excellently in the field, regularly solving operational or quality issues for our customers. This new approval now means that our Application Engineers can recommend ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 to optimise many more customer operations that supply ROLLS ROYCE and other leading aerospace OEMs.”
Engineered for Demanding Applications
Using advanced, forward-looking chemistry, ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 is suitable for a broad range of substrates, water qualities, machine tools and operations. Extensive development and testing has resulted in a product designed to outperform previous soluble metalworking chemistry from the outset with key benefits including:
- High lubricity for exceptional surface finish
- No staining on aluminium
- Excellent sump life
- Strong resistance to tramp oil contamination
- High detergency
- Low foam performance, even under high-pressure applications
These benefits help manufacturers increase productivity while simultaneously reducing overall operating costs.
For manufacturers machining titanium and nickel-based alloys, ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 offers the potential for high metal removal rates and extended tool life, helping to maximise output while protecting valuable tooling investments.
A Confident Step Forward
ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 was designed with the quality-conscious, risk-averse customer in mind. With full Rolls-Royce CSS 129/131 approval now secured, ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 gives manufacturers the confidence to move beyond the limitations of legacy technology and unlock their full machining potential.
Dom Ellison, Head of Industrial Sales, said “Achieving both > Airbus and RollsRoyce approvals confirms that ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 brings the very latest metalworking fluid technology to our aerospace customers. It means they can meet the most demanding OEM standards while gaining real-world benefits in performance, consistency and productivity. We’re helping them stay ahead in a fastmoving global market.”
