”Became a true believer of the Kroil products today. We were trying to pull a fan drive off the front of an engine and it was just not working. Had a cross bar puller on it and had it tensioned up pretty tight. I walked by the service truck and saw that Kroil can, so I sprayed a little bit on the back of the shaft and it popped about 3 seconds later! Started back with the puller and it fell off in my hands!”

“We deal with a lot of situations where heat has frozen all bolts, particularly on hot box core jobs and heat treat ovens. Before Kroil, it was burn ‘em off and drill ‘em out. Now, we have a high rate of success with just Kroil and a hand impact wrench.”

I was given an old can of Silikroil years ago from a tech who was liquidating an electronics fabrication company. I never heard of the stuff before. I noticed it had a faint sweet odor- unlike another penetrant that I loath using because it stinks so bad. I first tried it on some frozen lug nuts on my van that I suspected had galled because I couldn’t budge them even with a breaking bar. Silikroil did the trick! I was amazed! I have been hooked ever since and always have some with me at every job. I think of it as 10-50ftlbs of torque in a bottle and has enabled me to work on repairs that normally would have required air tools. Now I use it to restore old Hammond organs with frozen or jammed parts as it is safe for delicate mechanisms and has saved me from having to do involved and time consuming teardowns to unfreeze hard to get at gears.

We use Kroil to break loose bolts for railings and seats that need to be replaced as well as on stuck concession roll-up doors. We use it because it works.

We wouldn’t be purchasing Kroil if our team wasn’t asking for it by name. It’s a really good product.
