LUBRICANTS

YOUR ADVANTAGE IN AN INDUSTRIAL WORLD

SPINDLE OILS

The main requirements of a spindle bearing is that it should enable the spindle to rotate smoothly with a minimum of vibration or deflection under load and with the least possible wear or rise in temperature. Spindle bearings can operate under different conditions which are dependent on bearing temperature, speed, load, and the presence of moisture.

Effective lubrication is vital to help protect spindle bearings from tribological processes and wear that cause machines to fail. You can trust Castrol to provide the right product for the job, across all your operations.

THE COMPLETE RANGE OF SPINDLE OILS

General Application

Spindle bearings, bearings and associated clutches

FC Refined mineral oils with improved properties, for example anti-corrosion and anti-oxidation, which may be obtained by additives

Pressure, bath and oil mist (aerosol) lubrication of plain or rolling bearings and associated clutches

Where clutches are involved, anti-wear or extreme pressure (EP) additives should be avoided because of the risk of corrosion

FD Refined mineral oils with improved properties, for example anti-corrosion, anti-oxidation and anti-wear, which may be obtained by additives

Pressure, bath and oil mist (aerosol) lubrication of plain or rolling bearings
