CASTROL HYSOL XBB
System stability without compromise.
System stability without compromise
Castrol Hysol XBB cutting fluids deliver long-lasting system stability, with minimal maintenance and no compromise on quality. They’re ideal for machining cast iron and low alloy steel – and suitable for large central systems and single sump machines.
See how Castrol Hysol XBB can cut the compromise
Until now, cutting fluids for ferrous metals have needed particular care and attention to keep them in good working condition – avoiding poor sump life, increased additive usage, bacterial or fungal infections, bad odor and unpleasant working environments and, ultimately, high rejection rates.
To achieve this, traditional cutting fluids contain boron and formaldehyde-releasing agents. But using these chemicals is increasingly at odds with health and safety regulation.
It’s an ongoing balancing act – one Castrol’s technical experts have overcome with XBB: a unique formulation method that prolongs the life of cutting fluids without the use of additives.
Now you can cut the compromise
Castrol’s technical experts have tackled these conflicting challenges when machining ferrous alloys by introducing Castrol Hysol SL 30 XBB. Formulated using unique resilient additive technology, this innovative solution maintains pH at a constant level, assuring consistent productivity for longer than other standard cutting fluids*.
Castrol Hysol SL 30 XBB is also boron and biocide free, which can help improve your health and safety profile in itself.

Caveat copy: *Proven in lab tests and seen in real production conditions
A boron and biocide-free cutting fluid, optimised for ferrous alloys – but it’s also useful for some aluminium applications. Castrol Hysol SL 36 XBB is tried and tested by plant managers, and proven to maintain pH levels.
Castrol Hysol SL 36 XBB is also designed to minimise foaming in soft water conditions, and is suitable for large central systems and single sump machines.
Castrol Hysol SL 37 XBB has been proven to show good machining performance on a variety of alloys; aluminium, ferrous, Inconel and titanium*. It’s ideal for general machining, grinding, reaming and broaching – and offers longer-lasting machining performance, superior surface finish, and better component quality.
Using Castrol’s XBB technology, Castrol Hysol 37 XBB maintains stable pH for longer, formulated without boron and formaldehyde-releasing agents** – giving you safe, consistent machining with up to 90% less service additives.
* Proven in lab tests and real production conditions.
** Can contain traces of boron and formaldehyde-releasing agents.
A next-generation metalworking fluid created specifically for the aerospace industry and approved by major manufacturers.
Offering long-lasting machining performance with up to 90% lower biocide top-ups,1 Castrol Hysol SL 45 XBB gives manufacturers a better surface finish.2 It is also formulated without boron- and formaldehyde-releasing agents3 – helping aerospace manufacturers to comply with safety regulations.
This soluble cutting fluid is designed for grinding, milling, turning, drilling, reaming, tapping and broaching a range of aluminium and titanium alloys, and is suitable for machining ferrous alloys.
1 Castrol Hysol SL 45 XBB outperformed other cutting fluids in laboratory emulsion stability tests. Customers have been able to eliminate the use of all biocide and fungicide additives with no adverse effects.
2 Tapping torque test shows superior performance than common alternatives – typically improving tool life and surface finish. These results are supported by customer feedback, where Castrol Hysol SL 45 XBB has outperformed other fluids.
3 Can contain traces of boron
Castrol Hysol SL 50 XBB is a high-performance multi metal soluble cutting fluid that copes equally well with both advanced alloys and ferrous materials - yet still meets the latest regulatory standards like boron or formaldehyde releasing agent free.
Compatible with a range of aluminium and ferrous alloys, Hysol SL 50 XBB helps to improve operational processes and productivity, reduces waste, cuts fluid consumption and delivers consistently high performance.
