  • Supports continuous-duty operation
  • Maintains performance under load and elevated temperatures

PAO Synthetic Performance

  • Formulated with polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic base oil
  • Provides strong oxidation resistance and thermal stability
  • Performs across a wide operating temperature range

Clean Operation

  • Helps reduce varnish, sludge, and deposit formation
  • Keeps airends and internal components cleaner over time
  • Supports long-term compressor efficiency

Reliable Protection

  • Provides anti-wear protection for compressor components
  • Maintains lubrication under load and pressure
  • Protects against corrosion and oxidation

Extended Oil Life

  • Designed for extended service intervals
  • Typical service life up to 8,000 hours under proper conditions
  • Reduces maintenance frequency and downtime

55 Gallon Drum Supply

  • Ideal for high-usage facilities and multiple compressor systems
  • Reduces downtime from frequent oil reordering
  • Supports planned maintenance and inventory control

This synthetic compressor oil replacement is a strong fit for rotary screw compressor systems that require reliable performance, clean operation, and extended service life in higher temperature or heavier-duty applications.
