MidShire PenetroLube WS

Multi-purpose penetrating lubricant spray for workshop and general maintenance use. Frees seized fasteners, displaces moisture, lubricates, and protects metal surfaces against corrosion.

Product Overview

MidShire PenetroLube WS is a multi-purpose penetrating lubricant spray designed for use in automotive workshops, garages, and general maintenance environments. Its fast-penetrating, low-viscosity formula works quickly into corroded threads and seized components, helping to free stuck fasteners without the need for excessive force.

In addition to its penetrating action, PenetroLube WS displaces moisture from metal surfaces and electrical connections, leaves a protective corrosion-inhibiting film, and provides light lubrication for hinges, cables, chains, and other moving components. It is suitable for use on most metals and is safe for use around rubber and most plastics — always test on a small area if unsure.

Typical Applications

  • Freeing seized bolts, nuts, and corroded fasteners
  • Moisture displacement from electrical connectors and ignition systems
  • Light lubrication of door hinges, bonnet cables, and pivots
  • Protecting exposed metal surfaces from rust and corrosion
  • Loosening corroded brake caliper slide pins and guide bolts
  • General workshop use — light lubrication and corrosion prevention
  • Chain and cable lubrication (light duty)

Key Features & Benefits

  • Fast-penetrating formula — quickly reaches corrosion beneath thread surfaces
  • Effective moisture displacement — protects electrical contacts and connections
  • Corrosion-inhibiting film — provides ongoing protection after application
  • Light lubricating properties — suitable for pivots, hinges, and cables
  • Easy-to-use aerosol with precision extension tube for accurate application
  • Safe on most metals, rubbers, and plastics (spot test recommended)
  • Available in aerosol and liquid formats
