Product Overview
Greibo | Lubricants
Auxiliaries for the metal-working and lubricants
In addition to our GREILUBRIC hydraulic fluids and GREIPON industrial cleaning agents, we also offer an extensive range of metalworking coolants, our so-called GREIBOCOOLers. Our products are perfectly suited to both metal cutting and metal forming processes.
Specialty Lubricants: Achieving Peak Performance in Forming Technology
Welcome to the world of Lubricants – our high-performance specialty chemicals. These products are the invisible heroes of industrial manufacturing, critically minimizing friction between tools and metals. This is vital for processes like deep drawing, stamping, or roll forming (metal forming), where extreme pressures and temperatures prevail. Only through the use of these specialty oils can we achieve perfect component shapes, extend the life of the tooling (tool life), and ensure outstanding surface quality.
Quick Guide: Key Facts and Technical Terms Explained
The technical term for substances, such as oils and greases, used to reduce friction.
(or Forming Technology): Industrial processes (like stamping, deep drawing) that change the shape of a workpiece without material loss.
/ Stamping / Roll Forming: Different forming methods. Stamping is cutting out shapes; deep drawing is pressing a flat blank into a deeper, usually hollow, shape; roll forming is shaping profiles using rollers.
The operational duration of tools or machine components before they require replacement or maintenance. Good lubricants significantly extend this period.
A measure of the thickness or flow resistance of a lubricant. A high viscosity means the oil is thicker. The correct viscosity grade is crucial for each application.
The lowest temperature at which a substance can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air near its surface. A high flash point ensures higher safety in the workplace.
Means the product can vanish residue-free from the surface by heating after the forming process, eliminating the need for a separate cleaning step.

Special lubricants
Depending on the application, we can offer both water-miscible and non-water-miscible cooling lubricants. Our company is also known for its GREIFER DR wet forming process for the production of steel sheets.
