Shell Tonna Oils T
Machine Tool Tableway Oils
Shell Tonna Oils T are based on highly refined, high viscosity index,mineral oils.They contain tackiness and other special additives to meet the lubrication
demands of present day machine tools
Applications
* Machine tool slideways
* All machine tool parts, including bearingsand gearboxes, lubricated by circulation systems
* Shell Tonna Oils T32 and T68 are suitable as hydraulic media in combined hydraulic and lubrication systems. Their hydraulic oil performance compares with mild anti-wear hydraulic oils.
Performance Features
*Excellent Low friction Particularly on plastic coated slideways.Reduced chatter and vibration caused by
the phenomenon of 'stick-slip'*Stick-Slip prevention Shell Tonna Oils T contain a special additive combination which imparts the
frictional characteristics necessary to ensure that friction increases with speed over the widest possible speed range and
thus prevent stick-slip (see page 2).
*Good adhesive properties The tackiness additives which these oils contain impart good adhesiveness; this property is particularly advantageous on vertical slides, when conventional oils tend to run off.
*Oxidation stability Withstands high operating temperatures and prolongs oil life
*High viscosity index Low viscosity at machine tool 'start-up'temperature and adequate viscosity at high working temperatures. Minimum oil leakage through seals
*Improved emulsion separation performance Resists 'water-off' by coolants
*Anti-corrosion performance Provides protection on all machine tool metal surfaces
*Stain-free machining Components being machined are stain-free
*Excellent anti-wear characteristics The additive combination also minimises wear of the sliding surfaces. This ensures minimum machine tool 'downtime' - and reduced servicing costs.
