Mobilube 46 SAE 90

[MyLilMule]

My Bridgeport 6F power feed says it needs "Mobilube 46 SAE 90" oil, but I understand that this is no longer available.

What would be a correct substitute?

And I only need a quart of it, not 5 gallons.

There are some other discussions on the subject, but what I see recommended is an ISO 150 gear oil as being close to a SAE90 gear oil. FYI, a SAE gear oil ~ to a SAE 40 motor oil ~ ISO 150 oil.

I've read that thread on PM, but considering how old it is, I was wondering if there would be updated information. 1 gallon is better than 5 gallons, but I literally need less than a quart. A pint would probably be enough. I'm hoping someone sells something similar in smaller quantities. I'll have to check with HQT and see if they have anything like it in quarts. I know they do that with other oils from Mobil.

I wonder if this is a reasonable substitute. ISO150 and 1/3 the cost of a gallon of the Mobil stuff.

Yes, should be work OK. Only thing I would not use is automotive/gear oil for differentials which have unfriendly additives, but just about any other ISO 150 (SAE 90) gear oil should work well.

This will also work if you can find it in a smaller volume.
