What is the difference between anti-wear hydraulic oil and slideway oil?
May 16, 2021
What is the difference between anti-wear hydraulic oil and slideway oil (rail oil)? Can they be mixed? (1) Different definitions: Anti-wear hydraulic oil: It is made of refined Base Oil and high-quality additives, and is blended with the international advanced technology level. It can be widely used in the lubrication of low-pressure hydraulic systems in industrial equipment. Rail oil: highly refined high viscosity index mineral oil as the base oil, adding extreme pressure antiwear agent. It is blended with various special additives such as anti-corrosion and anti-rust agent. (2) The scope of application is different: Anti-wear hydraulic oil: In addition to various hydraulic systems, it can also be used for lubrication of medium-duty industrial gears (except worm gears and hypoid gears). The ambient temperature of its application is -10'C-40'C. Guide rail oil: It is especially suitable for equipment where the hydraulic system and other mechanical components are mixed together, and it is also very suitable for hydraulic elevators and elevators.
(3) Different performance requirements: Anti-wear hydraulic oil: It is required to have anti-oxidation, anti-water, anti-foam and anti-wear properties. Rail oil: high requirements for start-viscosity characteristics, to ensure the accuracy of rail sliding. (4) Viscosity is not the same: the viscosity of the two oils is very different: for example, the viscosity of 46 hydraulic oil at 40°C is about 40, while the viscosity of No. 32 rail oil is much higher than 40. (5) Different working conditions: Anti-wear hydraulic oil: It is mainly used to transmit power under the impetus of a vane pump or an insert pump. Its extreme pressure and anti-wear properties are poor, anti-rust, anti-oxidation, and anti-emulsification ability. Rail oil: indicator extreme pressure anti-wear performance and anti-rust performance. Abstract: In summary, the two oils cannot be mixed or used instead.
