Product Overview
AGREX Textile Machine Knitting & Needle Oil is a water-white, non-staining lubricant formulated for modern high-speed circular, flat, and hosiery knitting machines. Formulated with severe hydro-treated base stocks and emulsifiers, any accidental oil splashes on knitted fabric can be easily washed out during standard aqueous scouring processes.
Key Features & Benefits
- Non-staining formulation easily washes out of cotton, synthetic, and blended fabrics.
- Reduces friction heat and wear on latch needles, sinkers, and cam tracks.
- Extends needle life and prevents premature needle breakage under high-speed operation.
- Prevents varnish buildup and oxidation deposits on needle tricks.
Applications & Suitability
- High-speed circular knitting machines, flat knitting frames, socks & hosiery machinery.
- Suitable for automated needle oiling lubricator systems.
