Mobil Vactra Oil No. 2 Slideway Waylube offer a premium-quality  mineral based lubricant that is used in machine tool slideways. Lubricants that are used in a variety of applications in machining operation. Designed to meet the requirements for accuracy, aqueous coolant separability, and equipment protection of precision machine tools. 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 in linear bearings 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. It has been optimized to provide separability from many aqueous coolants while minimizing the corrosive effects of high pH coolants on lubricated surfaces. No. 2 represents the thickness of the oil which is an International Standards Organization Viscosity Grade (ISO VG) 68.Our 5 gallon pails of Mobil Vactra 2 have the following benefits: Our 55 gallon drums of Mobil Vactra 2 have the following benefits:

Controlled Frictional Characteristics:Helps eliminate stick slip; allows consistently accurate machining

Multi-material Capabilities:Suitable for a wide range of way material combinations allowing for product consolidation

Water and Aqueous Coolant Separability:Helps improve the life and performance of many aqueous coolants

Adhesiveness:Prevents removal of lubricant from critical surfaces

Long Term Rust and Corrosion Protection:Helps reduce the deterioration of sliding surfaces in the presence of water and aqueous coolants

Application

  • Suitable for use in applications that require Cincinnati Machine specifications P53, P47, and P50
  • Mobil vactra 2 way oil is recommended for horizontal slideways on small to medium size machine tools
  • Suitable for circulating application in large machines and as a moderate duty hydraulic fluid
  • Lubrication of ball screws, linear guides, headstocks, translating screws
  • Applications where oil contamination of the aqueous coolants shortens coolant batch life

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • ISO VG 68 is the viscosity grade indicated by the "No. 2" designation in the product name. This grade is recommended for horizontal slideways on small to medium size machine tools. It is also suitable for circulating applications in larger machines and as a moderate duty hydraulic fluid.

  • This oil is formulated for a wide range of way material combinations, including steel on steel and steel on polymer. This multi-material capability makes it suitable for consolidating lubrication across different machine configurations.

  • Stick-slip is an uneven, jerky motion that occurs in machine tool slideways when static and dynamic friction differ significantly. The unique additive package in this oil provides controlled frictional characteristics that help eliminate stick-slip in linear bearings and reduce chatter, enabling smooth, uniform motion at design travel speeds for improved machining accuracy and surface finish.

  • This oil is optimized to separate from many aqueous coolants, which helps improve coolant life and performance. It also minimizes the corrosive effects of high pH coolants on lubricated surfaces, making it well suited for applications where oil contamination of aqueous coolants is a concern.

  • Yes. Beyond horizontal slideways, this oil is suitable for lubricating ball screws, linear guides, headstocks, and translating screws. It can also be used in circulating systems on large machines and as a moderate duty hydraulic fluid.

  • Yes, this oil is suitable for use in applications that require Cincinnati Machine specifications P53, P47, and P50.
