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

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

  • This oil is formulated for machine tool slides, tables, and feed mechanisms. It is developed for use on a wide range of slideway surface materials, including cast iron and synthetic materials.

  • The ISO 68 (lower viscosity) grade is intended specifically 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, so it can be removed easily by skimming. This separation helps extend coolant life and maintain better cutting performance without cross-contamination.

  • Shell Tonna S2 MX 68 can be used in hydraulic and gearbox systems, but Shell Tonna S3 M oils are generally preferable for those applications. It is primarily optimized for slideway lubrication.

  • Shell Tonna S2 MX 68 meets Cincinnati Machine P-47 (ISO 68), ISO 19378 / ISO 6743-13 GA and GB, and DIN CGLP. For a full listing of equipment approvals, consult the Shell Technical Helpdesk or the OEM Approvals website.

  • The enhanced stick-slip characteristics of this oil overcome stick-slip problems, enabling more accurate positioning of machine tool slides. This translates to improved finished surface quality and better dimensional accuracy of work pieces.

Key Features

  • Excellent slideway adhesion: High tackiness agent content firmly adheres to slideway surfaces, resisting wash-off by metalworking fluids to reduce oil consumption and maintain uniform machine operation.

  • Ready separation from water-miscible cutting fluids: Separates completely and immediately from metalworking fluids for easy skimming, supporting longer coolant life and better cutting performance.

  • Good frictional properties: Overcomes stick-slip problems for more accurate positioning, delivering improved finished surface quality and dimensional accuracy of workpieces.

  • Anti-wear protection: Guards slideways, gears, bearings, and hydraulic system components against wear, while also providing effective corrosion prevention in the presence of water-miscible cutting fluids.

  • Meets key industry specifications including Cincinnati Machine P-47 (ISO 68), ISO 19378 / ISO 6743-13 GA and GB, and DIN CGLP; suitable for cast iron and synthetic slideway surface materials.
