Quaker Houghton recommended POLY SLICK™ 76-P 1.0 – 1.5 mm plunger beads. This solution was chosen because plunger beads create less carbon build-up than traditional plunger lubricants, resulting in cleaner working environments. Also, POLY SLICK™ 76-P demonstrates strong adherence to the plunger tip, extends tip and sleeve life with excellent boundary lubrication, and reduces cycle times.

Quaker Houghton reviewed the customers issues and recommended they switch to a dry-form wax plunger bead lubricant, POLY SLICK™ 76-P. This solution was chosen because plunger beads create less carbon build-up than traditional oil-based plunger lubricants, resulting in cleaner die cavities and machines.
