Subject: Penetrating = Oil

 

"Machinist's = Workshop" recently published information on various penetrating = oils. The magazine reports they tested these products for "break = out torque" on rusted nuts and bolts. A subjective test was made of = popular penetrating oils, with the unit of measurement being the torque = required to remove the nut from a "scientifically rusted" = bolt.

 

Average torque load = to loosen nut:

 

No Oil used = .........................516 foot pounds

 

WD-40 = ...............................238 foot pounds

 

PB Blaster = ..........................214 foot pounds

 

Liquid Wrench = .......................127 foot pounds

 

Kano Kroil = ..........................106 foot pounds

 

*ATF/Acetone mix = .....................53 foot pounds*

 

*The ATF/Acetone mix = is a "home brew" mix of 50/50 automatic transmission fluid and = acetone.

 

Note this "home = brew" released bolts better than any commercial product in this one = particular test.  Our local machinist group mixed up a batch, and = we all now use it with equally good results.  Note also that Liquid = Wrench is almost as good as Kroil for about 20% of the = price.

 

ATF/Acetone mix is = best, but you can also use ATF and lacquer thinner in a 50/50 = mix.

 

ATF =3D Automatic = Transmission Fluid
