PrimeLube : High-Performance Lubrication Solutions for the Automotive Industry
PrimeLube is an advanced lubrication booster technology developed by AD Coil Coating Technologies BV, which reduces friction, minimizes die wear, and improves efficiency in metal forming processes.
Unlike conventional lubricants, PrimeLube is applied as an ultra-thin organic layer to the galvanized steel surface before oil application. The combination of PrimeLube and oil creates a superior lubrication system with high performance, particularly suitable for hot-dip galvanized (GI) steel used in the production of automotive exterior components.
Key Advantages of PrimeLube Styling Lubricant
1. Reduce friction and wear on the stamping die.
PrimeLube creates a low and consistent coefficient of friction throughout the stamping process. This helps to:
- Reduce impact force
- Reduce surface scratching.
- Reduce mold wear.
- Extend the lifespan of molding and shaping equipment with lubrication.
2. Reduces Stain on Mold
PrimeLube technology significantly reduces the buildup of metal dust and debris on stamping dies, thereby:
- Reduce mold cleaning time and lubricate molding oil.
- Minimize unscheduled machine shutdowns for lubrication and shaping.
- Increase the operating efficiency of molding lubricants.
3. Increase Production Productivity
PrimeLube helps manufacturers:
- Increase the stamping speed and lubricate the forming oil.
- Reduce the defect rate of molding lubricant products .
- Increase output of molding lubricants.
- Reduced operating costs for molding lubricants.

Compatible with the entire automotive manufacturing process.
One of PrimeLube ‘s biggest advantages is its complete compatibility with subsequent production processes.
1. Resistance Spot Welding
PrimeLube does not affect weld quality and ensures stable welding performance in the production line.
2. Structural Adhesive (Adhesive Bonding)
PrimeLube coating does not reduce the adhesion of structural adhesives.
Especially on zinc-magnesium (ZM) steel substrates, PrimeLube also helps improve adhesive bonding.
3. Electrophoretic Paint (E-Coat)
PrimeLube is fully compatible with modern electrophoretic coating systems and does not affect the quality of the finished paint layer.
Easy to Remove After Machining
PrimeLube’s ultra-thin organic coating is designed to:
- Easily rinsed clean in a detergent tank.
- Leaves no residue.
- It will not affect the subsequent stages.
This helps businesses maintain product surface quality and optimize production processes.

1. Shaping Lubricant
PrimeLube is a line of forming lubricants featuring advanced Lubrication Booster technology developed by AD Coil Coating Technologies BV, which reduces friction, minimizes die wear, and enhances efficiency in metal forming processes.
2. Solvent-Replacing Cleaning Agents
MM31® was developed to optimize the entire surface treatment process before and after mechanical machining. After treatment with MM31®, the metal surface is not only completely clean but also forms a conversion coating that offers many benefits such as: increased paint adhesion, resulting in better paint bonding to the metal substrate; reduced peeling during use; improved corrosion resistance, providing better protection against moisture and harsh environments; and reduced rust.
3. Non-Chrome Passivation Solutions
Non-Chrome Passivation (Chrome-free Passivation) is a technology that creates a chemical conversion layer on metal surfaces without using any chromium compounds . This protective layer increases corrosion resistance, reduces white rust, and improves surface quality before machining or painting .
4. Passivation of Chrome III (Cr3+)
PrimeCoat® Z80x Series is a line of chemicals developed using Phosphate/Silane technology to provide high corrosion protection while meeting the trend of environmentally friendly production. PrimeCoat® Z80x is developed to replace passivation systems using Chromium VI (Cr⁶⁺), helping businesses transition to chrome-free technology while maintaining effective surface protection and corrosion resistance in a wide range of industrial applications.
5. Pre-treatment Chemicals
PrimeCoat® A109 is a water-based, chrome-free metal surface pretreatment chemical manufactured using advanced nanotechnology. It is an effective alternative to traditional chromate pretreatment systems, specifically developed for aluminum coils and cold-rolled steel. The product can replace traditional non-washing chromate pretreatment systems while still ensuring the necessary corrosion protection and adhesion to metal surfaces.
