Forney 20857 Tap Magic Industrial Pro Cutting Fluid, 4 oz

Great for drilling into metal and keeping your tap or drill bit lubricated

Wish I had ordered this before working on some other projects. This made a massive difference

This is a quality oil. It does have good viscosity and provides lubrication while drilling and using threading bits. I like that you don't have to waste oil to cut through metal and threading. It does have staying power. A little bit at a time works well.

This cutting fluid is fantastic! It works great for threading, drilling, and tapping. The lubrication reduces friction and keeps tools running smoothly. I noticed a significant improvement in both speed and accuracy while machining. Highly recommend it to anyone doing metalworking or repairs!

Worked great for me while I was tapping hole on a iron engine block.

A very good oil that helps drill through metal easily.Please note. I recommend that you work with gloves and try not to touch the oil directly, it may burn you if you touch your face, even after you wash your hands.

I still haven’t figured out what the difference is between this product and the one that looks like it’s the same bottle but a different price and different part number, the bottle I’m reviewing says “Tap Magic EP-Xtra Forney 20857”.Every application I had planned for it was into a vertical surface, not flat and horizontal, so after reading some reviews saying this stuff is thin like water had me concerned it wasn’t going to work for how I needed to use it. It’s certainly not thick like gear oil consistency like other tap fluids I’ve used, it’s not as thick as motor oil, but it is a little thicker than water. I put some on my drill tip and some on the vertical surface I intended to drill and most of it did run down and off, but some also did stick and it worked amazing.I needed to drill several holes into a very hard frame on my one ton truck. The first hole I attempted was with just any old bit I had on hand, barely scratched the surface, 100 years of drilling and I still wouldn’t have gotten a hole. Second attempt was with the best bit my local hardware store had, I tried wax, motor oil, WD40, I did get a hole in it but it took a lot of effort, so much so that I gave up on my task after just one hole to see if I could find an even better bit on Amazon. What I found was this stuff and I remember seeing it years ago in tool and die shops I’d been in so I ordered it.The word “Magic” in the name is more than just a marketing gimmick, it’s mind blowing what a difference just a little of this stuff made, night and day. If I was a drill bit manufacturer I’d include some of this stuff with every bit I sold, people would think it was my drill bits that were so amazing and would have no idea it was actually this Magic Tap fluid. I completed all my holes with little effort and just one bit.

Make cutting taping and drilling in metal 1000 times easier
