Type	Product	Description
NuSol® Series	NuSol 21® Supreme	NUSOL® 21 Supreme is a completely new technology that Chemtool Incorporated is introducing to the metalworking industry. NUSOL® 21 Supreme is like no other metalworking fluid on the market today. NUSOL® 21 Supreme is manufactured using a proprietary process that gives the product many unique characteristics that will promote very high productivity and minimal downtime for the end user. NUSOL® 21 Supreme is formulated using a unique preformed emulsion of very small particle size. This small particle size provides a very durable and uniform lubricant film, enhanced cooling, a very clean running fluid, and exceptional hard water stability
NuSol® Series	NuSol 21® HP	NUSOL® 21 High Performance offers all the benefits of the Supreme with the added lubricity for aluminum alloys by using synthetic oils rather than the high viscosity petroleum oils. In fact HP base synthetic oil is nearly 5 times the viscosity for better film strength on tough applications.
NuSol® Series	NuSol® 21 Ultra EP	NUSOL® 21 ULTRA EP formulated specifically for demanding aluminum and exotic alloys. Whether your operation is severe roll forming or high speed micro drilling NUSOL® 21 ULTRA is formulated to surpass your expectations. The uniquely small particle size provides a durable and uniform lubricant film, offering enhanced cooling, and film strength, while maintaining a clean running fluid with exceptional hard water stability. Lubricity based on PAO Chlorine and ester.
