Oiling Slip Gauges

hi

i've worked in engineering for 20 years using slip gauges daily an i've never seen a rusty one

even when they have been dropped down the back of the work bench for months

i think they must have a composition that doesn't rust with ease (h nikel perhaps)

but if you want to oil them i think any oil will help to protect the from moisture

all the best

I have been oiling mine with ISO68 way oil on principal. I may desist when I get a workshop with a more controlled atmosphere.
