Shuttering oil, also known as formwork oil or mould release agent, is a special liquid applied to the surface of formwork or shuttering before pouring concrete.
SHUTTERING OIL
Emulsified Mould Release Agent for Concrete and Mortar Form Works
Colour: Brownish Packaging: 20 litters Can Packing.
Shuttering Oil is specially formulated blend of mineral oils and chemicals with water having releasing properties which are superior to those of a conventional mould oil. The chemicals react with the alkali in the concrete to form a thin water repellent skin on the surface of the mould, thereby enabling easy striping from concrete and acting as a protection to steel and wooden formwork.
