Cutting Paste for Drilling Metal - 2.5 Oz Tub - Made in USA | Beeswax Cutting Oil for Drilling Metal | High Performance Tapping & Cutting Wax | Saw Blade Lubricant & Drill Cutting Fluid

WHY NOT TEN STARS? this stuff works. who would have thunk it. Iwas the oil can guy as that is what all proper machinest used. just ask mr. smith my high school shop teacher. well i spent most of my life with a mess and burned to heck drill bits and plenty of abandoned holes. i am using some inexpensive drill bits in a hex drive set. they were useless on anything beyond sheat metal. i saw this stuf when reordering lube oil and thought why not. i had to drill a 1/2" hole through 3/8 steel. i was prepaired as i bought bulk drill to throw away. well, with this stuff one cheap drill and actual curls of metal. i am over the moon over this stuff. my inexpensive, ok cheap drill set still looks like new. my only question is howis this company goingto stay in business. this stull lasts forever. mydesendants for generations might be using this tub. BOTTOM LINE, GET THIS STUFF, IT JUST WORKS>

This works so much better than cutting oil. Ive been converted. I even bought a similar product for my bandsaw and it works just as well.

I bought this to use with my little glass engraving set up (I'm a calligrapher getting into engraving at live events). While this isn't strictly necessary, I find it's definitely helpful in making my engraving more steady and smooth! A little goes a very long way in this sort of use...I just dip my burr in a few times and I'm good to go. I can't see myself ever needing more (there's a fair bit in the jar!), but if I did I would definitely reorder.

While this is a good product and works pretty well, it's not the product I really need mot of the time.

I originally bought this to dip magna bore bits into for slow drilling 3/4" AR400 plate. It was Ok for that, I switched to a different cutting fluid that worked a little better for super hard material. But this one is good for drilling normal steel.

I never used a lubricant on a drill bit before. I was never taught to use it. But, I had a really tough job to do on an an exhaust flange bolt. Basically, the bolt head snapped off, and left the remaining bolt in the flange. So, it needed to be drilled out. Pretty big bolt too. Did some research, and this product kept coming up to " cool" the drill bits, verses burning them out. ( which I've done a million times ) So, I'm looking at this massive bolt that needed drilling out and said to myself " I'm gonna need a ton of drill bits". I refused to spend hundreds of dollars on drill bits, so I ordered this lubricant instead. WHAT A GAME CHANGER !!! I dipped the bits into this stuff, and started drilling. Not a single bit burnt out ! It kept the bits cool and sharp. Tore thru that bolt in no time thanks to this product. I will never again drill metal without using this product first. Saved me alot of money.

I drilled about 100 holes into a 1.5 mm thick Stainless Steel plate with a 2 mm Tungsten Carbide drill bit.The drill bit is still going strong and the holes were very clean.I just used a simple hand-held drill.I would dip the drill bit into Beeswax before every hole.I highly recommend this product.

I love that it didn't get all over the place like fluid and it also trapped the metal shavings. Maybe fluid is better for some applications but it was great for chasing chainring threads.
