Shell Tonna S3 M oils are specially designed for the lubrication of machine tool slides, tables and feed mechanisms. Their enhanced tackiness and stick-slip characteristics combine to offer superior frictional performance on slideways. They are specially recommended in cases where high precision and low speed machines are used as well as in combined lubrication systems.
Benefits:
- Excellent frictional properties. Specially developed to overcome "stick-slip" problems with slow moving machine tool slides and tables, allowing more accurate positioning. This provides benefits of improved finished surface quality and dimensional accuracy of work pieces.
- Ready separation from water-miscible cutting fluids. Separates readily from water-miscible metalworking fluids allowing easy removal by skimming.
- Good slideway adhesion. Provides strong adhesion to slideway surfaces, resisting wash-off by metalworking fluids and thus reducing oil consumption and giving more uniform working condition for the machine.
- Provides high levels of anti-wear protection for slideways, gears, bearings and hydraulic system components.
- Excellent corrosion prevention characteristics.
Areas of Consideration:
None Specified
Applications:
Machine tool slideways, tables and feed mechanisms.
- Developed for use on a wide range of materials used for machine tool slideway surfaces, including cast iron and synthetic materials.
- Particularly recommended for machines which have a combined hydraulic and gear box system.
- Suitable for gear and headstock lubrication. The lower viscosity grades are intended for horizontal slide lubrication (Shell S3 M32 or 68). For vertical slides use Shell Tonna S3 M 220.
