Have you ever tried to turn a bolt and it just wouldn’t budge? Then you will love the power of penetrating oils and all that they do! Penetrating oils quickly breakthrough rust, warped, frozen parts, or any other parts that are proving to be challenging to breakthrough. One of the main benefits of penetrating oil is that it can clean and stop corrosion in tight places, but there are a number of other reasons why it’s a great product to have in your auto shop. We’re outlining 4 benefits of penetrating oil and why it’s a necessary item to have in every auto shop, key features to look out for when purchasing penetrating oil, and a guide to our favorite penetrating oil!

1. Lubrication is the one reason addressed above that penetrating oil offers a lot of help in auto shops. Some penetrating oils offer temporary support to making mechanical parts easier to manage. Others include additives so the formula increases the lubrication effect and it can be a band-aid solution for a longer period. The oil almost immediately decreases the amount of friction between two parts or surfaces and will also address frozen parts and tight bolts and nuts! 

2. Cleaning agent is the second benefit of penetrating oil. Since penetrating oils effectively breaks down tar, grease, rust, and adhesive they end up being the go-to solvent for many technicians. The oil will melt contaminants where they become incredibly easy to remove with a cloth, wipe, or abrasive. 

3. Corrosion-resistance is why penetrating oils are great for auto shops working on older trucks and cars. Penetrating oils are made to protect metal surfaces from corrosion and further corrosion by replacing the moisture that causes corrosion, which is the worst thing for metals and mechanical parts from functioning properly. 

4. Reducing noise is the final benefit of penetrating oils. Since they reduce rust and friction between two surfaces, they can help address squeaky door hinges, windshield wipers, noisy suspension, screeching chains, and other movable parts!

Key Features to Consider for Penetrating Oils

There are different types of penetrating oils that help address a variety of issues and challenges in auto shops. But when you are trying to make the decision about the best penetrating oil to place in your auto shop then you need to consider the following features:

• Temperature tolerance varies from product-to-product and by brand too. Be sure to check the temperature tolerance on the side of the packaging or ask us if you need the information from a product you buy from us. Synthetic penetrating oil products are great for hot parts as they provide coolants ensuring that the job you’re doing is done safely. 
• Product formulation is important when determining what to use against certain types of materials. For example, some penetrating oils are made up of ingredients that will damage rubber and plastic. Other products have additives that help the performance of auto parts. 
• Lubricity is the most important when determining the efficiency of a penetrating oil. High lubricity means it will reduce the wear and friction between moving parts easily. Make sure that the penetrating oil you choose has low viscosity so it can get through tight spaces faster, deeper, and with less product.
