Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

Oils for machine-tool slideways. Shell Tonna S2 M is specially formulated for lubricating machine-tool slideways and ways. Improved adhesion and stick-slip characteristics combine to deliver superior frictional performance for slideways. They are particularly recommended where there is high exposure to soluble cutting fluids.

Applications

• Machine-tool slideways, tables and feed mechanisms
• Developed for use on a wide range of machine-tool slideway surface materials, including cast iron and synthetic materials. Shell Tonna S2 M can also be used in hydraulic and transmission systems, in applications where Shell Tonna S3 M oils are generally preferred. The lower viscosity grades are intended for lubricating horizontal slideways (Shell Tonna S2 M 32 or 68). For vertical slideways, use Shell Tonna S2 M 220.

Performance & benefits

• Rapid separation from water-miscible cutting fluidsRapid, immediate separation from water-miscible fluids allows easy skimming. This helps achieve an extended service life for coolants, better cutting performance and reduced health and safety concerns.
• Good adhesion to machine-tool slidewaysEnsures very good adhesion to slideway surfaces, resisting wash-off by metalworking fluids and thereby reducing oil consumption and maintaining uniform working conditions for machine tools.
• Good frictional propertiesThe problems caused by stick-slip are overcome, allowing more accurate positioning. This delivers benefits in improved surface finish quality and dimensional accuracy of workpieces.
• Anti-wear protectionProvides good wear protection for slideways, gears, bearings and hydraulic system components.
• Excellent corrosion prevention characteristicsProvides effective corrosion protection for both components and machine-tool surfaces in the presence of water-miscible metalworking fluids.

Standards & approvals

• DIN 51502 CGLP

  Lubricant designation CGLP — DIN 51502

  The DIN code for machine tool slideway oils: antiwear additives plus friction modifiers, so the slide moves without stick-slip.

• Fives Cincinnati P-50

  Fives Cincinnati P-50 — ISO VG 220 slideway oil

  An approval number from the Fives Cincinnati list of fluids for use in its own machine tools. It covers slideway oils, additised so the slide moves without stick-slip and is not washed off by the coolant.

• ISO 19378 GA

  Slideway oil, class GA — ISO 19378

  Class GA of the ISO slideway (way) lubricant classification: an oil for horizontal machine-tool slideways, with friction modifiers against stick-slip.

• ISO 19378 GB

  Slideway oil, class GB — ISO 19378

  Class GB of the ISO slideway lubricant classification: a tackier oil for vertical slideways, so it does not drain off the surface.
