Choosing the Right Bandsaw Lubrication Oil for Your Operation
When selecting a bandsaw lubrication oil, consider the type of timber you’re cutting and your machine setup. Neat oils offer a simple pour-and-go option, while soluble concentrates provide cost efficiency and adaptability. EPS’s biodegradable formulas are designed to meet both safety and performance standards — with options tailored to high-speed cutting, reduced maintenance, and long blade life.

Why is the flashpoint important?
The flashpoint is the lowest temperature at which a liquid gives off enough vapour to ignite. Lower flashpoints mean easier ignition — not ideal unless you enjoy unplanned fireworks.
Diesel fuel has a flashpoint of around 52°C; our bandsaw oils, however, boast a flashpoint of over 160°C, making them much safer to store and use.
What is a Refractometer?
A refractometer is a nifty handheld tool used to measure the concentration of a solution by detecting how much light bends (refracts) through it. It’s quick, easy to use, and typically costs around £20 — a smart investment for keeping your lubrication ratios on point.
