The world-famous WD-40® has been around for over 70 years, empowering builders, mechanics and engineers to get the job done right with its Multi-Use Product. Though it was originally created to displace moisture on aerospace machinery, there’s not a toolbox, garage or household today that doesn’t have a can of WD-40 to hand. With this in mind, the eight-product WD-40 Specialist® range was created for professionals, providing expert formulations that enable jobs to be done more effectively and more efficiently.
WD-40 Specialist Silicone provides excellent lubrication on rubbers, plastic and PVC, and creates a water resistant seal to protect against moisture. It reduces friction and wear to prevent cracking and ageing of parts such as rubber seals or plastic pipes and can be used on almost any material including metal and wood. The long-lasting lubrication prevents parts from sticking as well as preventing rust and corrosion, making it the perfect all-rounder for conveyors, door runners, window seals, washers and so much more.
A new addition to the range is WD-40 Specialist Dry Lubricant which produces a clear dry film that resists dirt, dust and oil. It leaves behind a durable protective layer that reduces friction and wear on metals, plastics and glass, providing a non-stick surface for smooth lubrication that lasts. Due to the fast drying nature of the formula, it’s ideal for enclosed spaces or anywhere that may attract unwanted dust and debris, such as locks and catches, door tracks, drill bits, clasps and conveyors. Other lubricants in the range include WD-40 Specialist White Lithium Grease, which is a highly viscous grease for lubricating heavy-duty metal-to-metal connections in all weather conditions, and WD-40 Specialist Spray Grease, a thick lubricant that’s ideal for vertical metal or plastic surfaces as it doesn’t drip or run. Protecting power tools and cutting equipment is key to a successful day on site, and WD-40 Specialist Cutting Oil keeps blades, saws and drills sharp and effective without making a mess.
For those working in greasy, grimy conditions, WD-40 Specialist Degreaser is a no-brainer as it cuts through dirt and oil quickly and can be simply wiped or rinsed away. Rust is often an obstacle in construction projects, so keeping a can of WD-40 Specialist Penetrant within arms’ reach is a wise idea for breaking down rust and corrosion, with the low surface tension formula getting to work in seconds. Whether it’s the batteries on power tools or the wiring inside a building, using WD-40 Specialist Contact Cleaner to remove contaminants and flux residue from electrical contacts will provide longer life and better electrical connections. Equipped with the innovative Smart Straw™ for more than two decades, losing the coveted red straw is a thing of the past. Keep the straw down to make use of the wide spray or flip the straw up to target smaller areas with precision and accuracy.
