Pennine Spindle Oils R10, VG5, and VG3 are a range of high quality, low viscosity oils for high speed
machine tool spindles and certain hydraulic applications. They are manufactured from low viscosity
solvent refined mineral oils with selected additives to enhance performance. These products offer
good hydraulic performance, protection against wear, rust, and corrosion and are resistant to
oxidation.
Applications
These products find their main application in lubrication of high speed machine tool spindles.
Spindle Oil R10 is suitable for most spindle applications whilst Spindle Oils VG5 and VG3 are
recommended for higher speed and tighter clearance applications and Spindle Oil VG3 is
recommended for the so called "Zero Clearance" type of spindle bearing. Other uses include
hydraulic applications requiring very low viscosity oils where Spindle Oil R10 may be used.
