This stuff is great! It’s not a replacement for all lubes but it works great in most applications.

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.Great product.

I had burned up a slitting saw blade while cutting a one-eighth inch wide, quarter-inch deep groove in a workpiece using cutting oil. I ordered a new slitting saw blade and Anchorlube. I was able to cut the groove on the workpiece by slowing the speed, taking multiple shallow passes and generous application of Anchorlube. The Anchorlube kept the blade and workpiece cool, it didn't smoke (unlike the cutting oil) and the cut was clean and straight. I was impressed.

I saw this product being used by You tube content creators so I thought I would try it. It seems to be too thick to be of much use, just adheres to your drill or cutter and doesn't flow into the work like a fluid would. Chip cleanup from the cutter is a pain. Has the consistency of tooth paste and just as messy. And it is expensive unless you buy a large quantity. Not as much of a mess on the work or vice as oil; just doesn't seem like it is doing anything to help the cut.

The packing of the product was faulty. The product leaked out and lost a good deal of what was in the bottle

I like that it stays in place at higher rpm than oil and it just makes a better finish with carbide on steel than the name brand cutting oil I was using. I’ve yet to use this on aluminum.

Holy cow this stuff does wonders! Before I had Anchorlube, I had some serious problems drilling. I would have to slow down and re-insert my bit multiple times, only to be dealing with more friction and dissatisfaction than before. A friend of mine told me about his experience with this product and how it impacted his life. He wasn't lying, this stuff is life changing. I can drill faster, harder, and deeper than ever before! Not to mention how much longer I'm able to drill! I spend all weekend drilling everything in sight! Buy as many bottles as you can!

I've used Anchorlube for over 20 years for drilling and taping different sheet metal in retro changes an new vertical and horizontal work in panels and bench work with variable speed drill or by hand taping. Works well even bottom taping steel by hand threads come out clean and chips tend to stay with tap because it is not runny unless you need to thin it with water if necessary for the job. Vertical taping dip tap init and it stays with the tap. Clean up with damp paper towel or rag it is water soluble.

I use it on drill bits and it works as a good lubricant. It sticks to the bit which is great when your drill bit is facing up. I even use it on aluminum when near the presence of electronics because when drilling careful and slow the shavings stick and don't go flying off near as much as they do without it. Drill bits seem to last longer using this product.
