Miles QS Way Lube Way and Slide Lubricants Product Description The QS Way Lube Oils are premium-quality lubricants blended from highly refined base stocks. They have been fortified with advanced additives to impart excellent lubricity and extreme pressure properties. QS Way Lubes exhibit high film strength which allows build-up of a thick oil film that enables accurate table positioning and prevents wear of system components. This allows smooth, uniform motion at design travel speeds. The QS Way Lube Oils are optimized to provide sustained fast separating from aqueous coolants. Features and Benefits QS Way Lube Oils have been developed and specifically designed to provide an extra margin of machinery protection by satisfying the stringent demands of the slide ways while meeting the requirements of the other lubricated components of the machine tools. They exhibit excellent lubricity and load-carrying performance contributing significantly to improving the production of quality parts. Their outstanding oxidation and thermal stability characteristics improve machine cleanliness, provide desirable filterability properties and reduce the need for frequent maintenance services. The QS Way Lube Oils provide excellent separability from water and aqueous coolants reducing the potential negative effects of cross contamination enhancing the service life and performance of both the lubricant and the coolants. Features Advantages and Potential Benefits Low Frictional Characteristics Helps eliminate chatter and stick-slip, Improves finish and accuracy of parts, Lubricity Reduces wear Adhesiveness Prevents removal of lubricant from critical surfaces Protects surfaces from attack of high pH coolants Water and Aqueous Separability Extends lubricant life and performance, Improves aqueous coolant life Oxidation/ Stability Extends oil service life Keeps sliding surfaces and other lubricated components clean Helps reduce filter change frequencies Rust and Corrosion Protection Helps reduce the deterioration of sliding services and associated maintenance Improves the quality and productive capacity of finished parts Multi-Metal Compatibility Works with ferrous and non-ferrous materials Applications QS Way Lube Oils are recommended both as slideway lubricants and as fluids for moderate service machine tool hydraulic systems. These oils are designed for use with all combinations of cast iron, steel and non-metallic way materials. Their extreme pressure properties make them suitable for all types of gears found in machine tools. They should not be used in circulation systems where bulk oil temperatures exceed 160ºF. QS Way Lube Lt is recommended for horizontal slideways on small to medium size machine tools. It is also suitable for flood application in large machines. QS Way Lube Hvy is the normal recommendation for severe applications and machines with vertical slideways. QS Way Lube Oils can be used for lubrication of ballscrews, linear guides, headstocks, translating screws, spur and bevel gears, and lightly loaded worm gears Specifications and Approvals QS Way Lube Oil approvals: Ex Lt Lt Hvy BIJUR PT 37-1 X X X Cincinnati Machine P-53 P-47 P-50 Typical Properties QS Way Lube Numbered Series Ex Lt Lt Hvy ISO Viscosity Grade 32 68 220 Viscosity cSt @ 40ºC 31 66 219 Viscosity Index 96 96 96 Copper Strip Corrosion, ASTM D 130, 3 h @ 100ºC 1B 1B 1B Rust Protection, ASTM D 665A Pass Pass Pass FZG Load Support, DIN 51354, Fail Stage 13 13 13 4-Ball Wear, Dia, 20 Kg, 54ºC, 1800 RPM, >1 hr, ASTM D 4172, mm 0.25 0.25 0.25 Weld Load, 4-Ball EP, ASTM D 2783, kg 200 200 200 Pour Point, ºC, ASTM D 97 -31 -34 -3 Flash Point, ºC, ASTM D 92 214 230 238 Precautions QS WAY LUBE is manufactured from high quality petroleum base stocks, carefully blended with selected additives. As with all petroleum products, good personal hygiene and careful handling should always be practiced. Avoid prolonged contact to skin, splashing into the eyes, ingestion or vapor inhalation.
