The Mobil Vactra™ Oil Numbered Series are
premium-quality slideway lubricants specifically designed to meet the
requirements for accuracy, aqueous coolant separability, and equipment
protection of precision machine tools.
The Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered
Series is carefully formulated from high-quality base stocks and performance
balanced with an advanced additive system that provides controlled
frictional properties, compatibility with aqueous metal working fluids and
corrosion protection of parts and equipment. The unique additive package
provides exceptional frictional properties on a wide variety of way
materials, including steel on steel and steel on polymer, reducing
stick-slip and chatter. This allows smooth, uniform motion at design travel
speeds enhancing machine productivity and accuracy helping to prolong tool
life and enhance surface finish. The Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series has
been optimized to provide separability from many aqueous coolants while
minimizing the corrosive effects of high pH coolants on lubricated surfaces.
Features and Benefits
The Mobil Vactra Oil Numbered Series has been
developed and specifically designed to provide an extra margin of machinery
protection by satisfying the stringent demands of slide ways. The oils
exhibit excellent lubricity and load-carrying performance contributing
significantly to improving the production of quality parts. The Mobil Vactra
Oil Numbered Series provides separability from many water and aqueous
coolants reducing the potential negative effects of cross contamination
which helps to enhance the service life and performance of both the
lubricant and coolant.

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 Cincinnati Machine 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.
