Press releaseIssued by FUCHS Lubricants (UK) plc.

Fuchs Lubricants Co. and its parent company, Fuchs Petrolub SE, are pleased to announce the Safran approval of ECOCOOL S 761 B. The new approval authorizes the use of ECOCOOL S 761 B in the manufacturing of Messier, Bugatti and Dowty landing gear, non- assembled steels UTS ˂1380 MPa and aluminum and titanium alloys.

ECOCOOL S 761 B is a high performance soluble oil coolant with outstanding sump life for use in both ferrous & non-ferrous metalworking applications. It is formulated to control foam in soft water, yet retains emulsion stability in hard water.

ECOCOOL S 761 B is ideal for Tier 1 aerospace industry suppliers, providing high grinding speeds when producing aerospace aluminum, nickel super-alloy (including Inconel 718) and titanium (including Ti 6-4 and Ti-5553) components used in modern aircrafts.

Other ECOCOOL S 761 B approvals include; Boeing BAC 5008, Bombardier BAMS 569-001, Lockheed Martin EMAP G34.62, Airbus, Bell Helicopter, Rolls Royce CSS 129 & CSS 131 and Pratt & Whitney PMC 9364-1.
