Light-viscosity neat forming oil for general sheet-metal stamping + bending operations. ISO VG 22-32 viscosity. The default for auto-body panel stamping + appliance manufacturer press shops. Mineral base + light EP additive package.
Heavier-viscosity EP-fortified forming oil for deep-draw operations + thick-gauge stamping + progressive-die work. ISO VG 46-100. Higher chlorine + sulphur EP additives for severe forming with high friction loads.
Water-extendable forming-oil concentrate — diluted 3-15% in water for press-shop spray + roll-coating applications. Lower cost-per-part vs neat oils + easier cleanup post-forming. For high-volume auto-ancillary + appliance press shops.
Chlorine-free EP-fortified forming oil for plants with environmental + worker-safety policies restricting chlorinated chemistry. Heavy-sulphur + ester-EP package. Equivalent forming performance with cleaner chemistry.
Specialty stamping compound for high-speed progressive-die operations + fine-blanking. Higher tack + better die-surface persistence. For tier-1 auto-ancillary press shops.
Forming-oil selection guidance, on-site trial coordination, friction-coefficient measurement, post-forming cleanup compatibility verification. Vasundhara coordinates with Kixx technical team for new installations.

Common questions from press-shop + forming-line operators sourcing Kixx forming oils through Vasundhara.
Neat oil for low-volume + high-precision forming where part-cleanup isn't a major cost driver. Water-extendable concentrate for high-volume press shops where dilution economics + easier post-forming cleanup matter. Most auto body-in-white press shops use water-extendable concentrate for the volume economics.
Light (ISO VG 22-32, light EP additive) for general stamping + bending where forming loads are moderate. Heavy (ISO VG 46-100, heavier EP package) for deep-draw + progressive-die where forming friction is severe. Match grade to actual forming severity — using Light on deep-draw causes excessive die wear; using Heavy on light stamping wastes EP additive cost.
Yes — Kixx Chlorine-Free uses heavy-sulphur + ester-EP chemistry to match the friction-reduction performance of chlorinated forming oils. The trade-off is sometimes slightly stronger sulphur odour during forming + slightly different cleanup chemistry. Many auto-OEM customers are migrating to chlorine-free for environmental compliance + worker safety.
Three common methods: (1) aqueous alkaline degreasing (most common) — 5-15% alkaline cleaner at 50-70°C, removes most forming oils cleanly; (2) vapour degreasing (legacy method, declining due to environmental restrictions); (3) for water-extendable concentrates, simple water rinse + light alkaline cleaner. Match cleanup chemistry to forming-oil chemistry — chlorinated oils sometimes need specific alkaline formulations.
Yes. Standard packaging: 200 L drums for neat oils, 200 L drums + 1,000 L IBC for concentrates, bulk tankers (5,000+ L) for largest auto-OEM press-shop installations. Pan-India dispatch from Secunderabad.
