Technical Information For Phoenix No. 500 Synthetic Instrument Oil.
Applications:
Instruments - meters - outdoor controls - miniature motors - powdered metal bearings - slides, etc. An excellent cutting oil on light metals. Wipe on metal parts to help prevent rust.
Characteristics:
Very light viscosity for the best low temperature applications.
Wide temperature range. -90° F, to +250° F.
Excellent oxidation stability, no deposits.
Extremely long life.
Very low torque requirement.
For heavier duty but otherwise similar applications to those listed above use PHOENIX No. 510.
Limitations:
PHOENIX 500 is a synthetic base fluid and may adversely affect certain paints and elastomers. Products other than those developed for diester base fluids should be carefully tested for compatibility prior to use.
