Air Compressor Oil Features
Choosing the correct oil extends the life of your equipment, protects internal components, and helps maintain consistent air output. There are some key features to consider:
Oil Type
- Mineral Oil – Cost-effective and ideal for low- to moderate-duty cycles.
- Synthetic Oil – Better oxidation resistance, longer intervals between oil changes, and broader temperature tolerance.
- Food-Grade Oil – Designed for incidental food contact; suitable for regulated environments.
Viscosity Grade
- Viscosity defines how the oil flows at different temperatures. Choosing the right ISO VG ensures optimal lubrication and startup protection.
| Term | Meaning |
| ISO VG 32 | Low-viscosity oil for colder temperatures or tighter tolerances |
| ISO VG 46 | Standard grade for many rotary screw compressors |
| ISO VG 68/100 | Higher viscosity for hot climates or heavy loads |
Key Considerations
- Compressor Compatibility – Match oil type to your compressor’s make/model and duty cycle.
- Operating Environment – Consider temperature range, moisture, and contamination risks.
- Lubrication Schedule – Synthetic oils often allow for longer maintenance intervals.
Using the right oil prevents premature wear, keeps seals flexible, and reduces energy consumption.
