WD-40 Specialist Silicone leaves behind a lubricating film that resists water and protects against wear and corrosion. The resulting film is clear and free of messy or sticky residue, reducing the attraction of dirt and debris. The professional-grade formula can be relied on to lubricate even at extreme temperatures (-100° F to 500° F.).

\n

Silicone lubricant is ideal for use on cables, pulleys, guide rails, valves, linkages, hinges, locks, and more. It is safe to use on most common application surfaces including most metals, plastics, rubbers, and vinyl when used as directed. If unsure, test on a small area first. 

\n

The permanently attached Smart Straw® Sprays 2 Ways® delivery system allows for pinpoint application or a wider spray, giving you different options to fit the job.

WD-40 Specialist Penetrant with EZ-Reach contains a proprietary blend of ingredients that work fast to free rusted bolts and other stuck parts. The capillary action penetrates into tight crevices, threads, and seams to break the bonds that hold stuck parts together. It helps prevent rust and corrosion from re-forming and leaves behind a lubricating layer. The professional-grade formula is low odor, working effectively without harsh, lingering scents.

\n

Now the job is even easier with EZ-Reach, the permanently attached 8-inch flexible straw that bends and keeps its shape, giving you unlimited access to hard-to-reach places.

\n

Use Penetrant with EZ-Reach on hard-to-reach nuts, bolts, pipe threads and rusted things that are stuck and won't move! It is safe to use on most common application surfaces, including most metals, plastics, and rubbers when used as directed. If unsure, test on a small area first.
