Company Overview and Legacy
Hangsterfer's Laboratories, a third-generation family-owned and operated company, has been a developer and manufacturer of metalworking lubricants and compounds since its founding by Dr. William Hangsterfer in 1937. With over 80 years of experience, the company maintains a clear vision: 'To develop the world's most efficient metalworking lubricants and compounds.'
Advanced Metalworking Solutions
The company offers a comprehensive product line including emulsifiable oils, semi-synthetics, synthetics, straight cutting oils, drawing and forming compounds, dielectric fluid, EDM fluid, and machine lubricants. Key coolant offerings include S-500® CF, a Boeing-approved chlorine-free product for all metals, and the 700 Series Bio-Hard® Technology. Semi-synthetics like 5080® are chlorine-free, vegetable-based micro-emulsions designed for aerospace and medical alloys, known for low consumption and non-hazardous properties. Full synthetics, such as Crystal Cut® 322, are suitable for machining and grinding aerospace materials, utilizing alternative and renewable resources.
Hangsterfer's cutting oils, like the Hard-Cut® series, are recognized globally, with products such as Hard-Cut NG incorporating synthetic and vegetable compounds for extreme pressure and anti-wear performance, improving tool life and surface quality by up to 300%. The Missile Lube® series offers chlorine and sulfur-free options for enhanced tool life and surface finishes. Their PC series, based on Very High Flash Point (VHF) chemistry and Polar Cutting (PC) Technology, facilitates metal flow under high speeds and feeds. For EDM applications, Crystal Brite® EDM fluid is designed to increase amperage, reduce process times by up to 30%, and minimize carbonization.
Beyond fluids, Hangsterfer's provides ancillary equipment such as Javelin Coolant Filtering Systems, Portable Coolant and Oil Filtering Systems, Proportionators for accurate mixing, and TSP Water Treatment solutions to condition water and mitigate foam.
Commitment to Quality and Sustainability
Hangsterfer's demonstrates a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainability, reflected in its Environmental Action and Sustainability Policy and certifications including ISO 14001:2015. The company complies with stringent regulations such as TSCA, GHS, REACH, SVHC, and RoHS. All products are formulated with highly refined, ultra-pure ingredients, and the company is ISO 9001:2015 certified for quality management. This dedication extends to developing 'coolant compatible' machine lubricants that prevent negative coolant effects and promoting resource conservation.
