Application Information
  • Functional V-162 is an additive for reducing stray misting. It can be formulated into an oilbased cutting oil to reduce the oil mist during use. Unlike some other anti-misting additives, Functional V-162 does not make the lubricant tacky. Where tackiness is desired, Functional V-189 is recommended instead.
  • Functional V-162 may also be used as a tankside additive to compensate for the loss due to shearing in use or to provide extra anti-misting protection for specific problem equipment.

Regulatory & Compliance

Technical Details & Test Data

Treatment Level
  • Depending on the speed of machining and the viscosity of the cutting oil, treatment levels vary from .02% to 0.10% (200 - 1000 ppm).
  • Most tank-side applications require addition about once per week, although high-severity high-shear applications such as deep boring might require daily replenishment.
