  • Delivers enhanced oxidation resistance
  • Provides exceptional resistance to moisture
Provides Long-Lasting Protection
  • Minimizes wear under high-load conditions
  • Provides long oil service life
  • Reduces maintenance costs
  • Prolongs equipment life
Minimizes Varnish & Sludge
  • Inhibits sludge, varnish and deposit formation
  • Prevents sludge during service

Typical Applications

 N/A
  • High-speed precision machine tool spindles
  • Low-viscosity, low-pressure hydraulics

Proprietary Additive

 N/A LE’s proprietary additives are used exclusively in LE lubricants. Monolec Spindle Oil contains Monolec.

Monolec® wear-reducing additive creates a single molecular lubricating film on metal surfaces, vastly increasing oil film strength without affecting clearances. An invaluable component in LE’s engine oils, industrial oils and many of its other lubricants, Monolec allows opposing surfaces to slide by one another, greatly reducing friction, heat and wear.
