Environment and handling

Anchorlube contains no sulfur, chromates, nitrates, lead, lithium, tin, copper, formaldehyde, chlorine, fluorine, silicon, oil, or VOCs. It uses a distilled water formulation that goes on clean and rinses away easily. A green semi-paste that remains stable across room temperatures simplifies storage and use.

Storage and performance

Store at room temperature in a capped container. The consistency may vary with temperature; expect a lighter consistency in warm weather and a heavier paste as temperatures drop. These shifts do not affect performance.

Who benefits

Machinists, electricians, plumbers, welders, and HVAC technicians rely on Anchorlube for cleaner metalworking and reliable lubrication during tough operations. Its no oil formulation keeps the work area tidy and reduces risk of staining or residue on delicate parts.
