WD-40® multi-use product protects metal from rust and corrosion, penetrates stuck parts, displaces moisture and lubricates almost anything. Its permanently attached Smart Straw sprays 2 ways.
WD-40 SMART STRAW® 49002 is an 8 oz aerosol multipurpose lubricant designed for rapid penetration and protection of mechanical assemblies, fasteners, and moving parts in automotive body shop environments.
The formulation provides coverage of approximately 600-1,000 ft² per gallon and remains effective across a temperature range of -50 °C to 150 °C (-60 °F to 300 °F). It adheres well to galvanized steel, plastic, and regular steel substrates, delivering consistent lubrication without excess residue. The aerosol delivery system ensures even distribution while maintaining a closed-tag flash point of 138 °F (59 °C).
Due to its acute toxicity and flammability hazards, use requires appropriate personal protective equipment: eye protection, gloves, protective clothing, and a respirator in confined spaces. Operate in well-ventilated areas and follow standard first-aid procedures for inhalation, skin contact, eye exposure, or ingestion.
