Hougen 11742-4 Cutting Fluid 1 Gal Water Soluble

Product Description

The HOUGEN 11742-4 is a water-soluble, amber-colored cutting fluid packaged in a 1-gallon bottle, sold in a case of 4. Formulated as part of the RotaMagic series, this liquid cutting fluid is designed to extend tool life, reduce heat buildup, and improve cut quality during metal removal operations. It is suitable for use on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals and meets OSHA standards. Machinists, fabricators, and trade professionals use it with magnetic drills, annular cutters, drill bits, and other cutting tools where lubrication and cooling are critical to performance.

This cutting fluid is well suited for metal fabrication shops, structural steel work, HVAC duct fabrication, electrical conduit work, and general maintenance applications involving metal drilling or cutting. Its water-based, water-soluble composition makes it compatible with a wide range of cutting operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 1-gallon bottle size is practical for bench-side use or shop dispensing, and the case quantity of 4 supports higher-volume operations.
