I always kept WD-40 in our school programs and had to maintain MSDS sheets on it. WD-40 is almost entirely Mineral Spirits or "Stoddard Solvent". There is a tiny amount of lubricant and some fragrance added.
It makes a nice cleaner but a lousy lubricant. At home, I buy a gallon and place it in refillable, metal, pressure spray bottles. I don't have room for a solvent tank so I use a liberal spray of WD-40 to clean with, blow the parts dry with an air hose then lube with an appropriate product.
