Mobil Velocite Oil No. 3 is a premium performance spindle and hydraulic oil that is designed for use in high-speed, precision machine tools. It is also used in some critical hydraulic, circulation systems, and air line oilers.
Mobil Velocite Oil No. 3 is formulated from high-quality, low viscosity base oils and additives that provide excellent oxidation resistance, rust and corrosion protection, and water separation properties. It also has very good foaming resistance, which helps to ensure that the oil film is maintained on critical machine parts.
Features and Benefits
Excellent oxidation resistance helps to reduce critical deposit formation and improve oil life.
Very good rust and corrosion protection helps to improve equipment life and provide increased precision over the long term.
Effective water separation resists emulsion formation and keeps moisture out of critical lubrication areas.
Easy removal of moisture from system reservoirs helps to prevent the formation of rust and corrosion.
Applications
High-speed spindle bearings in machine tools and equipment where high speeds and fine clearances are involved.
Precision grinders, lathes, jig borers, and tracer mechanisms.
"Zero clearance" type spindle bearings which operate with extremely close clearances.
Sleeve type spindle bearings having greater clearances, where the choice of viscosity depends on the relation between clearance and spindle speed.
Advantages
Increased machine tool productivity and uptime.
Reduced maintenance costs.
Improved equipment life and precision.
Safer operation.
Recommendations
Mobil Velocite Oil No. 3 should be changed at regular intervals, as recommended by the machine tool manufacturer.
The oil should be filtered to remove contaminants before use.
The oil should be stored in a cool, dry place.
Availability
Mobil Velocite Oil No. 3 is available in a variety of sizes to meet the needs of different applications.
