53B013 - Walter Coolcut Solid Metal Cutting Lubricant Stick 300g

Stop Burning Drill Bits and Extend Blade Life

Every welder and fabricator knows the frustration of burning up a perfectly good drill bit or ruining a band saw blade on a piece of stainless steel. Heat is the enemy of cutting tools, causing them to lose their temper and dull rapidly. The Walter Coolcut™ Lubricant Stick (53B013) is the workshop solution to this perennial problem. This heavy-duty, solid lubricant stick is designed to be kept right at the drill press, band saw, or in your portable tool kit, ready to fight friction and heat instantly.

The Coolcut stick works by melting at the point of contact, releasing extreme pressure additives exactly where the cutting edge meets the metal. This immediate lubrication prevents the heat buildup that causes work hardening—a common nightmare when drilling or cutting stainless steel. By keeping the cut cooler, you not only preserve the cutting edge of your tool but also ensure a cleaner, smoother cut that requires less deburring later. It is far more effective and cleaner than trying to squirt oil onto a spinning bit, which often just flings off before it can do any good.

Versatility is key in a fabrication shop, and this stick handles it all. It is safe and effective on aluminum, preventing the gummy buildup that clogs saw teeth and drill flutes. It works wonders on mild steel, brass, and copper as well. Because it contains no chlorine or harmful solvents, you don't have to worry about it corroding your workpiece or releasing toxic fumes when it gets hot. It is biodegradable and non-toxic, making it a safe addition to any shop environment.

Using the Coolcut stick is simple: just push the stick up from the bottom of the dispenser and apply it to the teeth of your saw blade or the tip of your drill bit before you start the cut. For longer cuts, you can reapply as needed. The solid wax-like consistency means it stays put and doesn't drip all over your machine or floor. Whether you are reaming a hole to size, cutting structural tubing, or tapping a thread, the Walter Coolcut Lubricant Stick is the cheapest insurance you can buy for your expensive tooling.
