Selection notes

Steam-heated cylinders impose high oil temperatures. Match viscosity, oxidation resistance, water separation and flow to the OEM specification. Mobil also lists Paper Machine Oil S 220 for specified duty; 220 is not a universal viscosity recommendation.

Product families for technical selection, not a direct interchange chart. Confirm the exact grade, current UAE product data sheet, OEM approval and lubricant compatibility before use.
