guideway lubrication / lubricating oil
Explanation:
Plenty of references, apart from Kluwer page 387/855!

But who cares taking the trouble of supplying further references,
as long as excellent answers are habitually rejected without any justification?

chain oil


Explanation:
chain oil is designed for use on chains where higher temperatures are expected. Ik kom aan dit antwoord via de site van Shell met het woord leibaanolie. Daar staat een ISO code achter en die heb ik vervolgens bij Google opgevraagd in de Engelse pagina's. Maar ik ga nu naar bed en wens je sterkte met je oliën.

(Ik vind het niet erg aardig dat je mijn vorige antwoord wegdrukt. Al die moeite. Al is het fout, je kunt het gewoon laten staan en een opmerking plaatsen. Ik heb nog nooit iemand weggedrukt. Je bent vanavond al de tweede die dat doet. Zeker de Engelse sectie.)
