Machine tool slideway oils are specially designed for the lubrication of machine tool slides, tables and feed mechanisms. Their enhanced tackiness and stick-slip characteristics combine to offer superior frictional performance on slideways. The high tackiness agent content provides very effective adhesion to slideway surfaces, resisting wash-off by metalworking fluids and those reducing oil consumption and giving more uniform working condition for the machine. Separates completely and immediately from water-miscible metalworking fluids allowing easy removal by skimming. This helps to achieve longer coolant life, better cutting performance and to reduce Health & Safety issues. Developed for use on a wide range of materials used for machine tool slideway surfaces, including cast iron and synthetic materials.

Excellent slideway adhesion The high tackiness agent content provides very effective adhesion to slideway surfaces, resisting wash-off by metalworking fluids and those reducing oil consumption and giving more uniform working condition for the machine. Ready separation from water-miscible cutting fluids Separates completely and immediately from water-miscible metalworking fluids allowing easy removal by skimming. This helps to achieve longer coolant life, better cutting performance and to reduce Health & Safety issues.

Good frictional properties Stick-slip problems are overcome allowing more accurate positioning. This provides benefits of improved finished surface quality and dimensional accuracy of work pieces.

Good anti-wear performance Provides anti-wear protection for slideways, gears, bearings and hydraulic system components. Excellent corrosion prevention characteristics Provides effective prevention of machine tool surfaces and components in the presence of water-miscible cutting fluids.

Shell Tonna S2 MX oils are specially designed for the lubrication of machine tool slides, tables and feed mechanisms. Their enhanced tackiness and stick-slip characteristics combine to offer superior frictional performance on slideways. They are specially recommended in cases where high adherence is required and where high exposure to soluble cutting fluids exist.

Main Applications

  • Machine tool slideways, tables and feed mechanisms
  • Developed for use on a wide range of materials used for machine tool slideway surfaces, including cast iron and synthetic materials.
  • Shell Tonna S2 MX oils can be used also in the hydraulic and gearboxes system although in such applications Shell Tonna S3 M oils are generally preferable.
  • The lower viscosity grades are intended for horizontal slide lubrication (Shell Tonna S2 MX 68). For vertical slides use Shell Tonna S2 MX 220.
Specifications, Approvals & Recommendations
  • Cincinnati Machine P-50 (ISO 220), P-47 (ISO 68)
  • ISO 19378 / ISO 6743-13 GA and GB
  • DIN CGLP

  • This oil is designed for machine tool slides, tables, and feed mechanisms, and is suitable for a wide range of slideway surface materials including cast iron and synthetic materials. It can also be used in hydraulic systems and gearboxes, though Shell Tonna S3 M oils are generally preferable for those applications.

  • The ISO 68 viscosity grade is specifically intended for horizontal slide lubrication. If you are lubricating vertical slides, Shell Tonna S2 MX 220 is the recommended choice instead.

  • This oil separates completely and immediately from water-miscible metalworking fluids, making it easy to remove by skimming. This clean separation helps extend coolant life, maintain cutting performance, and reduce health and safety concerns.

  • The enhanced tackiness and stick-slip characteristics of this oil overcome stick-slip issues, allowing for more accurate positioning of machine tool components. This translates to improved surface quality and dimensional accuracy in finished work pieces.

  • Yes — in addition to excellent slideway adhesion, this oil provides anti-wear protection for slideways, gears, bearings, and hydraulic system components. It also offers corrosion prevention for machine tool surfaces and components when water-miscible cutting fluids are present.

  • This oil meets Cincinnati Machine P-47 (ISO 68), ISO 19378 / ISO 6743-13 GA and GB, and DIN CGLP specifications. For a full listing of equipment approvals and recommendations, consult your local Shell Technical Helpdesk or the OEM Approvals website.
