Rustlick 74053 WS-11 Grinding Fluid 5 Gallon Pail

Product Description

The RUSTLICK 74053 is the WS-11 water-based grinding fluid, supplied in a 5-gallon pail. This liquid coolant and lubricant is formulated for metalworking operations including grinding and machining. It is designed to control heat, reduce tool wear, and leave a light protective film on workpieces to inhibit rust between operations. The brown liquid composition and water-based carrier make it compatible with a wide range of metals. It is handled and applied by machinists, tool and die shops, and metalworking facilities operating conventional and CNC grinding equipment.

WS-11 is suited for grinding and machining applications on aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, ferrous metals, and titanium. Its water-based formula positions it as a low-cost solution for shops needing a coolant-lubricant that works across multiple material types without specialized fluid systems. The 5-gallon pail format is practical for shop floor use, benchtop dispensing, and sump replenishment in small to mid-size machining operations. It carries OSHA compliance relevance as noted in its standards designation.

Installation Notes

Applied by machinists or fluid management personnel in metalworking and machine shop environments. Before adding to an existing sump or coolant system, verify that the system is clean and free of incompatible residual fluids. Follow OSHA guidelines for handling and disposal of metalworking fluids, including appropriate PPE such as chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection. Consult the product safety data sheet before use.
