Manufacturer's description

The Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series are premium-quality slideway lubricants designed to meet the accuracy, aqueous coolant separability and equipment protection requirements of precision machine tools. Formulated from high-quality base stocks with a performance-balanced, advanced additive system, they provide controlled frictional properties, compatibility with aqueous metalworking fluids, and corrosion protection of parts and equipment. The unique additive package delivers exceptional frictional behaviour across a wide range of way materials, including steel-on-steel and steel-on-polymer, reducing stick-slip and chatter for smooth, uniform motion at design travel speeds, enhancing productivity, accuracy, tool life and surface finish, while separability from aqueous coolants minimises the corrosive effects of high-pH coolants. These oils are recommended for lubricating machine tool slideway systems combining cast iron, steel and non-metallic way materials, applied by hand, forced-feed lubricator or flood circulation. Vactra No. 1 and No. 2 suit horizontal slideways on small to medium machine tools, circulating application on large machines, and moderate-duty hydraulic service; No. 3 and No. 4 suit large machines with high way pressures and demanding precision, vertical and inclined slideways prone to drain-down, and moderate-service gear drive mechanisms. The series is also used for ball screws, linear guides, headstocks and translating screws, and where oil contamination shortens aqueous coolant batch life. Key benefits include controlled frictional characteristics that eliminate stick-slip for consistently accurate machining, multi-material capability for product consolidation, separability from water and aqueous coolants that extends coolant life, strong adhesiveness that keeps the lubricant on critical surfaces, and long-term rust and corrosion protection. Depending on grade, the series meets Fives Cincinnati P-47, P-50 and P-53 specifications and DIN 51502 CGLP, ISO L-GA and ISO L-GB (ISO 6743-13:2002) requirements, across ISO VG 32 to 220 grades.

Applications

  • Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series products are recommended for the lubrication of machine tool slideway systems. They are designed for use with combinations of cast iron, steel and non-metallic way materials. Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series may be applied by hand, forced-feed lubricator or in flood application by circulation system. • Mobil Vactra Oil No. Series of products are suitable for use in applications that require Fives Cincinnati specifications P53, P47, and P50. • Mobil Vactra Oil No. 1 and No. 2 are recommended for horizontal slideways on small to medium size machine tools. They are also suitable for circulating application in large machines and as a moderate duty hydraulic fluid. • Mobil Vactra Oil No. 3 and No. 4 are normally recommended for large machines where way pressures are high and good precision is required. They are also recommended for vertical and inclined slideways where drain-down can be a problem and for moderate service machine tool gear drive mechanisms. • Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series can be used for lubrication of ball screws, linear guides, headstocks, translating screws. • Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series is recommended for applications where oil contamination of the aqueous coolants shortens coolant batch life.

Performance & benefits

  • Controlled Frictional CharacteristicsHelps eliminate stick slip; allows consistently accurate machining
  • Multi-material CapabilitiesSuitable for a wide range of way material combinations allowing for product consolidation
  • Water and Aqueous Coolant SeparabilityHelps improve the life and performance of many aqueous coolants
  • AdhesivenessPrevents removal of lubricant from critical surfaces
  • Long Term Rust and Corrosion ProtectionHelps reduce the deterioration of sliding surfaces in the presence of water and aqueous coolants

Standards & approvals

  • Fives Cincinnati P-47

    Fives Cincinnati P-47 — ISO VG 68 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.

  • 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.

  • Fives Cincinnati P-53

    Fives Cincinnati P-53 — 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.

  • 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.

  • ISO 6743/13 GA

    Lubricant classification 3 GA — ISO 6743

    The ISO classification of slideway oils; class GA covers oils for horizontal slideways, with friction modifiers against stick-slip.
