MX10 Foaming Cutting Oil
INOX MX10 Foaming Cutting Oil is a high-performance EP foaming lubricant, specially formulated with corrosion inhibitors for drilling, tapping and machining on a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
The rich foam clings strongly to tools and vertical/overhead surfaces, penetrating deep into the cut zone to deliver consistent cooling and superior lubrication exactly where it’s needed. This reduces wear, heat and friction whilst producing cleaner, more precise cuts.
Suitable for drilling, tapping, threading, reaming, boring, milling, machining, fabrication and CNC and lathe operations. Works effectively on steel, sheet metal, stainless, galvanised, aluminium, yellow metals and other alloys including Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy and Titanium.
The sulphur and chlorine-free formulation ensures broad material compatibility without staining or corrosion. The high performance lubricating film extends tool life, whilst the foam format minimises torque and chatter, improves cut finish and thread quality, and provides excellent overhead and vertical cling.
These qualities make INOX MX10 the professional’s choice across metal fabrication, manufacturing, shipbuilding, construction trades, engineering and DIY applications.
Key Features
- Reduces heat, friction, swarf build-up and galling through advanced EP additives designed for high-load cutting conditions.
- Minimises torque and chatter for smoother, more controlled cutting.
- Improves cut finish and thread quality for clean, precise results.
- Clings to surfaces without run-off across all orientations, delivering reliable performance in vertical and overhead applications.
- Penetrates quickly into threads, holes and deep cuts for continuous deep-hole machining.
- Forms a high-performance lubricating film to extend tool life and reduce wear.
- Sulphur-free and chlorine-free formulation prevents staining on sensitive metals.
- Suitable for all metals, including ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.
- Solvent-free formulation delivers low odour, minimal evaporation and a cleaner working environment.
- Leaves a protective residual film to help prevent corrosion on freshly cut surfaces.
- Economical to use, with low consumption and extended tool life reducing overall operating costs.
- Non-conductive, making it safe for use around electrical components.
Application & Uses
INOX MX10 Foaming Cutting Oil is the professional choice for metal cutting, drilling and machining operations across multiple industries and applications:
Metal Fabrication – Essential for precision cutting, sawing, shearing and slicing of steel, stainless steel and non-ferrous metals. The foam cling ensures continuous lubrication whilst reducing tool wear and improving finish quality.
Manufacturing & Machining – Perfect for CNC operations, lathe work, boring and reaming. The foam format allows spot application exactly where needed, whilst the extreme pressure additives handle high-speed cutting operations with ease.
Shipbuilding & Aluminium Work – Specifically valued for hull work, frame construction and aluminium machining where vertical cling and stain-free operation are essential. The protective film left behind guards against saltwater corrosion in maritime environments.
Construction & Trade – Invaluable for on-site drilling through steel beams and plates, HVAC installations and structural work. The foam cling means no drips on the operator or work area, providing professional results in challenging field conditions.
Engineering Workshops – Ideal for bracket fabrication, modification work and general workshop maintenance. Makes vertical drilling easier and cleaner whilst reducing tool replacement costs through extended drill bit and tap life.
DIY & Home Workshops – Suitable for serious DIY enthusiasts and home hobbyists tackling metal cutting projects. The foam format makes it easy to achieve professional results without the mess of traditional cutting oils.
