Rustlick 74056 WS-5050 Cutting Grinding Fluid 5 Gal

Product Description

The RUSTLICK 74056 is a water-soluble cutting and grinding fluid sold in a 5-gallon pail. It is a water-based, blue-colored liquid formulated with chlorinated extreme-pressure (EP) additives and a thin oily-film corrosion inhibitor. The fluid delivers high lubricity during metal removal operations, helping to extend tool life and improve surface finish quality. It is used by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and CNC operators working across a wide range of metalworking applications. The pail contains a net fill of 5 gallons and weighs approximately 43 pounds.

WS-5050 is designed for general-purpose metalworking in both manual and CNC machine environments. Compatible material applications include aluminum, die-cast aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, ferrous metals, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, and zinc. Typical operations include drilling, milling, broaching, and CNC machining. The fluid is suitable for job shops and production facilities handling a broad mix of work materials and cutting tasks where a single fluid solution is preferred across multiple machine types.

Compatibility

Suitable for use on aluminum, die-cast aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, ferrous metals, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, and zinc. Applicable operations include broaching, CNC machining, drilling, and milling.

Installation Notes

Metalworking fluids are typically prepared and maintained by machinists or fluid management personnel following the manufacturer's mix-ratio guidelines. Before servicing a machine sump, power down the machine and follow lockout/tagout procedures per applicable OSHA standards. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection, when handling and mixing concentrated fluid. Dispose of spent fluid in accordance with local environmental regulations.
