10 ISO OIL used for

[AWLEAPHART]

All you machinist out there.
I have ordered a gallon of 10WT oil from KBC tools and both times they have sent me 10 ISO by mistake. I know spindle bearings take 10wt -22ISO but what uses 10 ISO.

Gotta log splitter?

SAE 10W’s = ISO 32, 20W = ISO 46 & 68, 30W = ISO 100.

If you’re ordering 10W but they’re sending you 10 ISO you should ask for your $$ back AND a pre-paid shipping label to return it to them.

Iso32 is what is called turbine oil. Good for bearings and spindles

Dusty not all ISO 32 oils are turbine oils. We use GST ISO32 or 68 or R&O ISO32 or 68 oil in hydro’s and some turbine units. We also use ISO32 AW in gear boxes and hydraulic units. There’s both hydraulic and turbine oil.

Oh i realize that but pretty much if you say you need some oil like for bearings youll get turbine oil 32. Not sure why mobil and shell calls it that- (i was an engineer for ge for many years on turbines and we didnt use it in turbines )

Dusty just out of Curiosity did you work on aero derivative or industrial turbines.

I did on the first gallon. They said they was sorry and sent anther gallon of 10 ISO. I paid for both gallons being to be nice.

Power gen-so both. Mostly large frame but some aeros here and there
