It's used for water displacement, as the name ("WD") indicates. It's also a 
penetrating oil for loosening tight and possibly corroded nuts and bolts. 
It can be used for a lubricant for non-critical applications, such as door 
hinges. But due to its penetrating qualities, it probably shouldn't be used 
in critical applications. For example, people who have used it to lubricate 
guns have found that it penetrates into the primers of loaded cartridges 
and renders them inert.
