Oil Question

[twhite]

As the company I am working for is leaving the state. They are disposing of lots of stuff. There is a 5 gallon pail of the following. See picture. Is it of any use to my home equipment. Logan lathe South Bend lathe and Tree mill?

Any oil is good if it's un-used .

That's a really good oil, it's ISO 46, so if any of your machines use that, take it before someone else does! I used SHC 626 in centrifuges and it made a big difference in reducing the varnishing from the high bearing temperatures, in a home shop, it should last many years of good service.

Yes mine take ISO VF46 for things. I will have a lifetime supply.

Thanks for the replies

Great score!

Checking out the stuff. I believe I can use it on everything except ways. It will work for my spindle oil on both lathes. A bit heavier than recommended but will work just fine.

Will it work for transfusions?
