It’s important to differentiate between household and automotive-grade penetrating oils, which can be applied to multi-purpose applications safely, and industrial lubricants, which are better suited for heavy-duty use and conditions under which a specialised product can be safely applied. Industrial machinery can operate at extremely high speeds, under extreme temperatures, and for longer periods of continuous use than bicycle gears or a squeaky patio door, for example. The best penetrating oil for your plant operations is one that’s safe to use and uses synthetic or oil-based lubrication designed for your specific application. This will ensure that your machinery operates efficiently for years to come.
