Starrett 93227 Penetrant Lubricant 5 Gallon Pail

Product Description

The STARRETT 93227 is a petroleum-based penetrant lubricant supplied in a 5-gallon pail. It is formulated from hydrotreated light petroleum distillates and a calcium oxidate compound, delivering a light-viscosity oil that spreads and penetrates quickly into corroded or frozen fasteners. The product is VOC compliant, silicone free, and carries NSF H2 registration, making it appropriate for incidental contact environments. A dielectric strength rating of 18,000 volts allows safe use around electrical equipment in high-moisture conditions. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and trade professionals in HVAC, plumbing, and industrial service work install and use this product.

The STARRETT 93227 is suited for general maintenance and repair applications across commercial and industrial facilities. It frees frozen nuts, bolts, and metal parts, removes grease, tar, and grime from metal surfaces, and cleans and polishes for lasting protection. It is also effective at displacing moisture to address short circuits in high-humidity or wet environments. The amber color aids visual identification during application. The 5-gallon pail format is practical for shop use or jobsite dispensing where high-volume consumption makes smaller containers inefficient.

Key Features

• Penetrates quickly to free frozen nuts, bolts, and seized metal parts
• Dielectric strength up to 18,000 volts — safe for use around electrical components in moist environments
• VOC compliant formulation meets environmental regulations in most jurisdictions
• Silicone free — will not contaminate surfaces sensitive to silicone residue
• Cleans and removes grease, tar, and grime while leaving a light protective film
• NSF H2 registered for incidental food contact environments

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose penetrant lubricant for metal fasteners, mechanical assemblies, and electrical enclosures across maintenance and trade service applications where a petroleum-based, silicone-free formula is required.

Installation Notes

Apply with appropriate dispensing equipment rated for petroleum-based fluids. Keep away from open flame and ignition sources — flash point is 170 degrees F. Store the pail in a cool, well-ventilated area per standard flammable-liquid storage requirements. Dispose of used product and empty containers in accordance with local regulations governing petroleum waste.
