Description
This is the silicone lubricant from WD-40's Specialist range, supplied in a 400ml spray can with a Smart Straw and a 360 degree valve. The Smart Straw lets you switch between a wide spray and a precise line, so you can cover a broad area or aim into a tight spot. The 360 degree valve means the can works upright or upside down, which is handy when you're reaching under a car door or up into a door frame.
The formula lubricates parts to stop them sticking, while repelling dirt and moisture without staining. It is particularly good at prolonging the life of rubber components, and it stands up to high pressure equipment too. It holds up across a temperature range of -35C to +200C, so it stays effective in cold and hot conditions alike.
We find it useful for a long list of jobs around the home, workshop and garage. Common uses include UPVC window and door latches, garage door runners, fishing reels, plumbing fittings, and car door and window seals. The can measures 65 x 65 x 200mm and weighs 194g, making it easy to keep on a shelf or in a toolbox. Because the silicone does not attract dirt, it is a sensible choice where you want lubrication that stays clean over time. One can covers plenty of small tasks, and the two spray patterns mean you waste less product on jobs that need care.
