MACHINE WAY Oils based on paraffinic mineral oils containing anti-oxidant, anti-corrosion, load-carrying, adhesive and copper-protection additives. These oils have been tested on a Staticinemetre friction-testing machine, a rig designed to evaluate the lubricating properties of lubricants used for machine-tool slideway systems. They showed no indication of stick-slip at loads of 1.5 bar and 3.0 bar at a sliding velocity of 2mm/ sec on V and flat slideway surfaces Petrogulf Machine Way Oils have also been tested in a modified Cincinnati Milacron thermal stability test with steel and copper test rods in the presence of water. Evaluation of the test rods to Cincinnati color corrosion standards shows the excellent protection given by the oils under these severe test conditions (24 hours at 100°C).

KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Excellent work finish from the elimination of stick slip, particularly at low feed rates and high loads.
• Adhesive properties maintain oil film and resist removal by aqueous cutting fluids.
• Drainage from vertical slideways minimized by adhesive properties.
• Provide superior protection against rust and corrosion of non-ferrous metals.
• Extreme-Pressure (EP) additives give low slideway wear. – Low odor due to unique formulation of additives.
• Long life due to superior stability. – Suitable for most machine workshop, gearbox and hydraulic applications.
• Give excellent performance in combined slideway/ hydraulic systems

APPLICATIONS

Petrogulf Machine Way Oils are specially developed to cater for heavy loaded conditions at slow feed rates. They are recommended for
the lubrication of both horizontal and vertical ways of machine tools.
