Does Tormek Anticorrosion Fluid = Honerite?

I've been using Honerite for hand sharpening woodworking tools to prevent rust. I just got a Tormek Diamond Wheel and I'm wondering if the supplied Anticorrosion Fluid is the same as Honerite?

Function-wise, it looks like a yes by looking at the SDS. Tormek's solution claims 1-10% Dodecanedioc Acid (DDDA), which is a carboxylic acid. Honerite shows 9-12% "mixed carboxylic acids" along with Triazole (likely to prevent funk growing in the bottle or in stones?), fluorescin, and some "mixed amines" which could lend themselves to many different functions. I'm betting that the carboxylic acid in Honerite is mostly DDDA.
