The magazine reports they tested these products for "break out<BR>"torque" on rusted nuts and bolts. A subjective test was made of popular<BR>penetrating oils, with the unit of merit being the torque required to<BR>remove the nut from a "scientifically rusted" bolt.<BR>Average torque load to loosen nut:<BR>No Oil used ........................516 foot pounds<BR>WD-40 ..................... ........238 foot pounds<BR>PB Blaster .........................214 foot pounds<BR>Liquid Wrench ......................127 foot pounds<BR>Kano Kroil .........................106 foot pounds<BR>ATF/Acetone mix...................... 53 foot pounds<BR><BR>The ATF/Acetone mix is a "home brew" mix of 50/50 automatic
transmission<BR>fluid and acetone. Note this "home brew" released bolts better than any<BR>commercial product in this one particular test.<BR>Our local machinist group mixed up a batch, and we all now use it with<BR>equally good results. Note also that Liquid Wrench is almost as good as<BR>Kroil for 20% of the price.<BR>ATF/Acetone mix is best, but you can also use ATF and lacquer thinner in a<BR>50/50 mix. ATF = Any type of Automatic Transmission Fluid<BR> This version of the story was in one<BR> of the Military Vehicle Club newsletters:</SPAN></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV>
