Although Bellhammer products (spray, undiluted solution, and grease) are not specifically labeled as rust-preventive oils, they are expected to form a lubricating film on metal surfaces to reduce contact with moisture and oxygen, and consequently prevent rust from occurring.
Many customers have used this product for the purpose of rust prevention when storing knives and tools, and it is effective.
For applications in direct contact with food (such as knives during cooking), please use “H1 Bell Hammer”.
H1 Bell Hammer is an NSF H1 certified lubricant for food machinery and has been confirmed to be safe even when in contact with food.
Even if the regular type is used for rust-preventive purposes, please wash and wipe thoroughly before cooking.
