Special lubricant with very low density and high capillary penetration for very tight parts. With its long and fine-tipped applicator bottle, greasing micro-bearings, motors, gears, axles, and bushings becomes a clean, quick, and millimetre-precise task.
The precision oil your bearings and motors have been waiting for
The Mitoos CXM100 Oil is a specifically formulated lubricant designed for the demands of competitive slot racing and the technical preparation of motorized miniatures. With just 20 ml in the bottle, it offers more than it seems: an extremely low density that allows it to penetrate by capillarity into the tightest spaces between closely fitting parts, where other thicker lubricants simply cannot reach.
Main features
- Volume: 20 ml per bottle.
- Very low density: easily penetrates between parts with minimal tolerances thanks to its high capillarity.
- High lubricating power: effectively reduces friction between moving plastic and metal components.
- Applicator bottle with long, fine tip: allows for millimetric precision dosing without staining or wasting product.
- Rubber stopper closure: prevents spills and keeps the oil in perfect condition between sessions.
Recommended applications
This oil is formulated for components where cleanliness and precision of application are as important as lubrication itself. It is particularly effective in:
- Micro ball bearings: the most critical point of any slot car motor. A well-lubricated bearing makes a difference in top speed and longevity.
- Electric motors: the motor shaft bearings appreciate a well-placed drop that reduces friction without contaminating the collector.
- Gears, crowns and pinions: keeps the engagement smooth and quiet, especially in plastic transmissions where wear is greater.
- Axles and bushings: lubricates the contact between axle and bushing, reducing heat generated during long running sessions.
Behaviour and performance
The low viscosity of Mitoos CXM100 oil is its main technical advantage: it does not accumulate in unwanted areas nor attract dirt as easily as denser lubricants. At the same time, its formulation guarantees a stable lubricating film that does not disappear in the first minutes of running. The result is smoother operation of the mechanical assembly, less heat, and greater lifespan of the components.
Usage recommendations
Always apply sparingly: a small drop is sufficient for micro bearings and motors. Excess oil can migrate to the braids or the motor collector and cause electrical conduction issues. The long, fine tip of the applicator bottle makes it easy to reach difficult areas without completely disassembling the car. After lubricating, turn the axle by hand for a few seconds to evenly distribute the product before putting the car on the track.
Frequently asked questions
Is it compatible with plastic parts?
Yes. Mitoos CXM100 oil is expressly indicated for use on plastic/metal contacts, common in gears, bushings, and axles of slot cars.
Can I use it on the ball bearings of any slot car?
Yes, it is a general-purpose lubricant for scale ball bearings, regardless of the car brand. A minimal drop on each bearing is sufficient.
How often should I lubricate the bearings?
It depends on usage. In club competition cars with intensive running, it is advisable to check lubrication every few sessions. In recreational cars, an application every few weeks of active use is usually sufficient.
Can the oil damage the braids or the motor collector?
If applied excessively and migrates to the braids or collector, it can affect electrical contact. Therefore, it is essential to dose carefully and use the fine tip of the applicator to place the oil only where needed.
Can I also use it on static models or dioramas with moving parts?
Yes. Its low density and high capillarity make it useful in any small-format mechanism with closely fitting moving parts, beyond slot racing.
The Mitoos CXM100 lubricant oil is a low-viscosity, high-capillarity precision oil designed for slot car preparation and miniature motorized models. Perfect for ball bearings, electric motors, gears, axles and bushings, its fine-tipped applicator bottle ensures accurate, mess-free lubrication. A must-have maintenance product for slot car enthusiasts, club racers and scale modelers seeking smoother running and longer component life.
