Spindole

M - 10
SPINDOLE M-10
High Performance Spindle Oils

Product Description
Spindole M10 oil is premium performance product primarily designed for the lubrication of high
speed spindles in machine tools. They are formulated from select high quality, low viscosity
base oils and additives that impart good resistance to oxidation and protection from rust and
corrosion. They possess very good resistance to foaming and separate readily from water.

Features and Benefits

Spindole M10 oil provides exceptional lubrication of close tolerance bearings which helps keep
the bearings running cool and helps maintain the precision required by many of today’s critical
machine tools. Spindole M 10 has very good oxidation resistance which helps reduce critical
deposit formation improves oil life. This oil has very good rust and corrosion protection with
effective water separation, which helps to improve equipment life, provides increased precision
for long term. Also resist emulsion formation which allows easy removal of moisture from
system reservoirs.

Applications
 High speed spindle bearings in machine tools and equipment where high speed and high
clearances are involved.
 Precision grinders, lathes, jig borers and tracer mechanism.
 Spindole M10 is recommended for ‘’Zero Clearances’’ type spindle bearings which operate
with extremely close clearances.
 For Severe types of spindle bearings having greater clearances, the choice of the viscosity
depends on the relation between clearances and spindle speed.
 For some sensitive instruments such as telescopes, laboratory equipments etc.
