Industrial “HC” Slideway Lubricants are products formulated for lubricating the ways of various types of machine tools. They are blended from Hydroprocessed API Group II base stocks and have been compounded with additives to impart outstanding lubricity and extreme pressure properties. Industrial “HC” Slideway lubricants provide the high film strength and adhesion on horizontal and vertical way bearing faces to reduce wear. The product affords good water/ metalworking fluid separation and offers good rust and corrosion protection. The lubricant adhesion properties prevent fluid from draining away from lubricated surfaces and minimizes fluid extraction between heavily loaded ways. Rust and corrosion protection are good.
