Description
Overview:
Ridgid Thread Cutting Fluid/Oil 5 litres (part 11931) is a premium, chlorine-free cutting oil formulated for cleaner, more accurate threads on pipe and rod. The additive package provides consistent lubrication and cooling at the cutting edge, helping tools bite cleanly and shed chips to reduce galling and tearing. It is free from chlorine, halogens, PCBs, and heavy metals, making it suitable for workshops where safer, modern chemistries are preferred. Designed for use with manual ratchet threaders and powered machines, it supports die heads on common threading systems used in plumbing, heating, fire protection, and electrical conduit work. Ideal alongside machines such as the RIDGID 300 or 700 Power Drive, it promotes a smooth finish and reliable thread engagement for leak-tight joints.
Key Features:
- 5-litre supply for frequent site use and workshop maintenance
- Chlorine-, halogen-, PCB- and heavy metal-free formulation
- Improves thread quality for a cleaner finish and better sealing performance
- Strong lubricity and cooling help control heat build-up at the dies
- Reduces threading torque and speeds chip formation/metal removal
- Helps extend die and tool life by minimising wear and galling
- Good wetting and cling so the oil stays on the workpiece and cutting edges
- Suitable for manual and powered threading machines and die heads
- Works on common pipe materials used in building services and fabrication
- Resealable container for easy pouring and controlled application
Typical Applications:
Used during cutting of BSPT/BSPP pipe threads in plumbing and heating installs, gas and fire sprinkler systems, and general MRO. Supports threading of electrical conduit, handrails, and fabrication studs. Suitable for workshop production work, mobile service engineers, and site-based threading with self-oiling heads or external application bottles to achieve consistent, high-quality threads.
