Bonderite® L-FG F 31 Acheson (previously known as Deltaforge F-31) is the world’s most widely used lubricant for forging. Designed to provide excellent dispersion stability & a more uniform coating results in a higher level of consistency in operation and finished pieces.

No separation or settling in concentrate resulting in consistent forging performance.
Effective for hot, warm and precision forging.
Forms a film on hot dies up to 371°C (700°F).
Excellent release on difficult press work and highly automated processes.
Improved part quality.
Less billet material needed.
Reduced press downtime due to stickers.
Increased die life and lowest die cost per forging.
Reduced scrap and rework.
Less material sprayed leading to less waste disposal.
Functions effectively across a wide temperature range
