Rustlick 74055 Cutting Grinding Fluid 5 Gallon Pail

Product Description

The RUSTLICK 74055 is a water-soluble cutting and grinding fluid formulated for general-purpose metalworking operations. Sold in a 5-gallon pail with a net fill of 5 gallons, this brown liquid concentrate uses non-chlorinated extreme-pressure (EP) additives to protect tooling and workpiece surfaces during cutting, grinding, and machining. The water-based, oil-containing formula leaves a thin oily film on metal surfaces that resists corrosion between operations. Weighing 45 pounds per pail, it is suited for shop environments where machinists and tool-and-die technicians need a single fluid that handles multiple material types without introducing chlorinated chemistry.

WS-500A series fluid is designed for use on a broad range of metals including aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, ferrous metals, and titanium. It performs across general machining operations including cutting and grinding on both light-alloy and ferrous workpieces. The fluid is appropriate for production machine shops, toolrooms, and job shops running CNC or manual equipment where coolant longevity and tool life are priorities. Its water-soluble oil composition allows it to be mixed with water to the concentration required by the specific operation and material.

Key Features

• Non-chlorinated EP additives provide extreme-pressure protection without chlorinated chemistry
• Water-soluble oil formula mixes with water for adjustable concentration
• Thin oily-film corrosion protection guards parts and machine surfaces between cuts
• Compatible with aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, ferrous metals, and titanium
• Increases tool life during cutting and grinding operations
• Meets OSHA standards for metalworking fluid use

Compatibility

Suitable for cutting and grinding applications on aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, ferrous metals, and titanium. Designed for general-purpose machining operations where a water-soluble oil coolant is specified.

Installation Notes

Mixing and application should be performed by qualified machine operators or maintenance technicians following the equipment manufacturer's coolant concentration guidelines. Always consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before handling and use appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection. Dispose of spent coolant in accordance with local environmental regulations and OSHA fluid management requirements. Do not mix with chlorinated cutting fluids or incompatible coolant chemistries without verifying compatibility.
