Say goodbye to those oily stains from your cutting fluid with KBC Tools & Machinery and Anchorlube: The Ultimate Water Based Cutting Fluid AVAILABLE NOW!

We’re always on the lookout for the best products to help you get the job done right. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the newest addition to our lineup of cutting fluids and solutions: Anchorlube, the world’s #1 water-based cutting fluid and metalworking compound!

Why Anchorlube?

Anchorlube isn’t just a product—it’s a piece of history. Founded in the 1950s by Samuel R. Firth, Jr., Anchorlube was created as an oil alternative long before environmental consciousness became a trend. Sam’s groundbreaking formula was not only effective but also safe, making it a staple in workshops across the world.

Since 1953, Anchorlube has been the go-to choice for metalworking professionals around the globe. Why? Because it’s not just another lubricant—it’s a game-changer! Anchorlube’s unique water-soluble formula is designed to tackle the toughest jobs with ease, whether you’re working with stainless steel, high carbon steel, aluminum, titanium, or even exotic alloys. It’s the one product that can handle it all.

Features That Shine:

  • Versatile and Reliable: Anchorlube is a semi-paste cutting fluid that adapts to your environment, making it perfect for any metalworking operation—from drilling and tapping to sawing and stamping. Plus, you can dilute up to 1:1 with water for sawing and other machining that has sump applications.
  • Environmentally Friendly: With no nitrates, chromates, mercury, or formaldehyde base compounds, Anchorlube is safe for you and the planet. Plus, it’s EPA, ROHS, and REACH compliant!
  • Tool Life Saver: This advanced formula keeps your tools sharp and efficient for longer, reducing the need for frequent replacements. That means more time working and less time shopping for new tools.
  • Temperature-Responsive: Anchorlube transforms from a lighter viscosity in warm conditions to a heavier paste in colder ones, but don’t worry—its performance remains top-notch no matter the temperature.
  • Easy Cleanup: Tired of messy oils that stain your clothes and shop floor? Anchorlube’s water-based formula washes away easily with just soapy water. It’s even safe for food production facilities! The semi-paste formulation means that it sticks to the point of application and doesn’t drip or fling due to its thicker viscosity than other cutting fluid products.

Why We Chose Anchorlube

Our purchasing manager, Kathy, decided to bring Anchorlube on board after hearing rave reviews from metalworking influencers and clients alike. Some of the metalworking influencers who are singing the praise of Anchorlube in their shops and on social media include, Ken Welds, Abom79, Jeremy Makes Things, Josh from Topper Machine LLC, and Keith Rucker Vintage Machinery. Dan from Anchorlube sums it up best: “Nothing works better for cutting the hardest metals like stainless and high-carbon steel. It’s non-hazardous, won’t stain your clothes, and cuts like butter on the hardest metals like stainless and hi carbon steel!”
