Product overview

Engineered for dependable performance

NFO Noroil 45E offers manufacturers an alternative to natural sperm oil for applications requiring oil-based lubrication and formulation flexibility.

The Noroil family is recognized for its affinity and polar attraction to metal surfaces, making it valuable in cutting oil formulations. It also supports the production of oil-in-water emulsions and water-soluble cutting fluids.

Beyond metalworking, Noroil products serve the leather tanning industry, where they contribute to the desired feel and finish of processed leather. Their use in grease manufacturing and industrial oil formulations further extends their versatility across manufacturing sectors.
