Champion XLUB-WAX BruteLube Cutting Wax for Metal Drilling, Tapping, Reaming & Sawing
Champion BruteLube XLUB-WAX Cutting Wax is a professional cutting lubricant designed to reduce heat, friction, chip welding and tool wear during metal drilling, tapping, reaming, sawing and hole cutting. Its solid wax formula clings directly to the cutting edge, creating a continuous shield against friction without the mess, dripping or run-off of traditional cutting oils.
Built for use on steel, stainless steel, aluminum and exotic alloys, BruteLube cutting wax is especially useful when working overhead, vertically, indoors or anywhere liquid cutting oil would create cleanup problems. It melts gradually into the cut as the tool heats up, helping improve tool life, cutting finish and overall productivity.
Use XLUB-WAX with hole cutters, annular cutters, drill bits, taps, reamers, step drills and saw blades to help reduce overheating, improve chip flow and protect expensive cutting tools from premature wear.
Key Benefits
- Extends tool life by reducing friction and cutting heat.
- Helps reduce chip welding during drilling, tapping, reaming and cutting.
- Solid wax formula clings to the tool for cleaner, longer-lasting lubrication.
- No drip, no run-off and less mess than traditional cutting oils.
- Ideal for overhead, vertical and jobsite applications.
- Helps produce a cleaner finish and closer tolerances on finished work.
- Works on steel, stainless steel, aluminum and exotic alloys.
Common Applications
- Metal drilling
- Tapping and thread cutting
- Reaming
- Hole cutting
- Annular cutter lubrication
- Band saw blade lubrication
- Step drill and sheet metal drilling
- Stainless steel drilling and cutting

Why Use Cutting Wax Instead of Cutting Oil?
Cutting wax is ideal when you need strong lubrication without liquid run-off. Unlike oil, BruteLube wax stays where it is applied, making it a cleaner option for overhead drilling, vertical surfaces, portable tools and indoor jobs. It also helps protect the cutting edge by reducing heat and friction directly at the point of contact.
Apply wax directly to the cutting edge before and during use as needed. Reapply during heavy drilling, tapping or sawing operations. Store at room temperature and keep away from open flame. Always wear proper PPE and follow tool and machine safety instructions.
