Customer Reviews
Delivers Outstanding Results
I've been using Anchorlube for over a year, and it's been a game-changer for my shop. It handles everything from stainless steel to aluminum with ease, reducing heat and wear on my tools. The water-based formula is easy to clean up. My tools last longer, and the cuts are smoother. Highly recommend Anchorlube for anyone looking to improve their machining process.
Outperforms The Competition
I've tried them all – Tap Magic, Rapid Tap, Accu-Lube, CRC Cutting Oil, you name it, but Anchorlube outperforms them by far. It keeps my tools cooler, extends their life, and gives smoother cuts, especially on tough materials like stainless steel. It's water-based, so cleanup is a breeze, and there's no sticky residue left behind. Anchorlube is now my go-to cutting fluid, and I highly recommend it to any machinist.
The King of Cutting Lubes
Anchorlube has been around since I was an apprentice machinist in 1976. It has been a go to lube in every shop I've worked in for the last 50 years and it's been in my own shop for the last 40. Anchorlube is a water based lube that tames noisy endmills and lengthens the life of drills and taps no matter what you're cutting. I use it on ferrous and non-ferrous materials and it only takes a very small amount to help the cutting along so a small bottle still lasts a good while.
