Amsoil Commercial & Industrial Products

Reduced operating costs * Greater fuel economy
Increased equipment durability * Extended drain intervals

In 1972, AMSOIL INC. introduced AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Motor Oil and became the first company in the world to manufacture and market an American Petroleum Institute (API) rated synthetic motor oil.

Why synthetic? Because synthetic lubricants are superior to conventional petroleum lubricants. Petroleum lubes are refined from crude oil, a natural substance pumped from the earth and containing diverse chemicals. Some of the chemicals in petroleum oil are detrimental to the lubrication process and to the lubricated components. For example, some petoleum oil chemicals invite oxidation in high temperature operations. Oxidation qickly destroys lubricant integrity.

Synthetic lubes, on the other hand, are not refined from crude oil, but constructed from pure chemicals selected for their ability to lubricate. The purity of synthetic lubricant basestocks significantly reduces lubricant oxidation, which promotes the ability of synthetics to be used in higher temperature applications than conventional lubes may be and promotes their ability to be used for extended drain intervals. In fact, AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are specially formulated for extended drain intervals.

Synthetics are also free of the paraffins found in conventional petroleum oils. With no paraffin to congeal at low temperatures, synthetics maintain better low temperature fluidity than pertroleum oils do, which protects equipment operating in cold environments -- even the relative cold of a just-started engine.

The molecular uniformity of carefully selected synthetic lubes promotes superior lubrication and friction reduction, which in turn promotes superior heat control, wear control and energy efficiency. Molecular uniformity also helps synthetics maintain their protective viscosity in high temperature operations, which also promotes superior wear control.

The superior performance and protection afforded your equipment by AMSOIL synthetic lubricants adds up to increased productive time and profits for you.

Compressor Oils

AMSOIL Synthetic PC Series Compressor Oils are made from high-quality synthetic oils. They promote long compressor life through reduced component wear, corrosion protection and resistance to water degradation and lubricant breakdown.

" I credit AMSOIL Compressor Oil with savings in five areas. By helping our compressors run 20 degrees F to 40 degrees F cooler, we no longer need fans and special ventilation systems for heat reduction. With those cooler operating temperatures and the high-quality fluid, our valves don't carbon up, so we don't have to replace them as often. Our compressors draw 10 percent less amperage with AMSOIL Compressor Oil. Our oil consumption is way down and we've gone from three-month to 8000-hour compressor oil drain intervals. Multiply those savings times thousands of compressors and you can see why we're installing AMSOIL Compressor Oil nationwide. "

Application Recommendations

AMSOIL Synthetic PC Series Compressor Oils are recommended for use in single-stage and multi-stage rotary screw, vane and reciprocating compressor crankcases and cylinders, vacuum pumps and other compressor applications. Available in five viscosity grades, AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oils match compressor manufacturer viscosity recommendations.

Performance Features

AMSOIL Synthetic PC Series Compressor Oils are highly resistant to thermal and oxidative breakdown, which inhibits carbon buildup. The inhibition of carbon buildup promotes efficient, normal temperature range operation.

AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oils are formulated to keep water from mixing with the oil and deteriorating its lubricating ability. AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oils are also formulated for easy water removal, with no need for specialized water removal processes.

Safety Advantage

AMSOIL Synthetic PC Series Compressor Oils' higher flash, fire and auto-ignition points and reduced tendency to form carbon deposits makes them a reduced fire or explosion hazard as compared to conventional petroleum compressor oils.

SIROCCO® SYNTHETIC COMPRESSOR OIL

AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil is a high-quality, long-life fluid formulated with premium synthetic ester technology. SIROCCO® effectively prevents wear, oxidation, foam and rust, while its inherent lubricity and thermal conductivity reduce heat and energy consumption, increasing operating efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.

Application Recommendations

AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil is a multi-viscosity oil meeting the requirements of 5W-20. It may be used in applications calling for either an ISO-32 or ISO-46 compressor oil or coolant and is recommended for use in single- and multi-stage rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps that call for this viscosity.

Performance Features

AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil maintains performance across a wide operating temperature range. Its low pour point, high viscosity index and lack of paraffins (wax) make it an excellent all-season lubricant.

SIROCCO® is also highly resistant to water. It prevents damaging oil/water emulsions, allowing for longer lubricant life and ease of water removal from the sump.

AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil resists oxidation, foaming and rust for extended drain performance. It is also biodegradable under the CEC-L33-A94 standard.

AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil has higher flash, fire and auto ignition points than competitive petroleum oils. Its resistance to carbon formation and its ashless additive system minimize the incidence of deposits acting as ignition-promoting hot spots.

AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil safely replaces PAG type compressor oils, such as Ingersoll-Rand SSR Ultra-Coolant® or Sullair Sullube 32®, following normal oil change procedures, without extensive flushing.

Application Recommendations

AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are recommended for high and low pressure gear, vane and piston stationary and mobile hydraulic systems. They are available in many viscosity grades; choose the grade recommended by the equipment manufacturer.

AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils meet the performance requirements of all major hydraulic manufacturers and are excellent for general purpose use where extended drain intervals are desired or in severe-duty operations where temperature extremes are encountered. The ISO 15 and 22 grade products, AWF and AWG, are preferred for use in temperatures -20°F or lower.

Performance Features

AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils resist thermal and oxidative breakdown, inhibiting carbon and varnish deposits. Deposit-free hydraulic equipment outlasts and outperforms deposit-laden equipment. Machinery lubricated with AMSOIL Synthetic Hydraulic Fluid runs cooler than machinery lubricated with conventional fluids. Cooler operation promotes long life for hoses, seals and other components.

AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils separate readily from water, preventing the formation of oil-water emulsions and subsequent degradation of equipment lubrication and protection. Ready water separation also promotes easy sump water drainage.

AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils' high-quality, zinc-based antiwear/antioxidant additive prevents wear in high-speed, high-pressure vane and gear pumps while meeting the lubrication requirements of axial piston pumps with bronze-steel metallurgy.

Also Available:
AMSOIL Synthetic Thermally Stable Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (TBI).

Amsoil Synthetic Greases

AMSOIL synthetic greases offer the superiority properties of synthetic oils, premium quality lithium complex thickeners and top-quality performance additives.

Broad Temperature Performance

AMSOIL synthetic greases perform across a broader temperature range than other greases do. One AMSOIL synthetic grease may replace two conventional, seasonal
greases, reducing inventory and the possibility of misapplication.

Extreme Pressure and Load Carrying Ability

AMSOIL synthetic greases protect components from metal-to-metal contact, even under heavy loads. Their extreme pressure additives form a shield against sudden or sustained extreme loads for dependable protection from wear.

Rust and Corrosion Protection

AMSOIL synthetic greases contain special rust and corrosion inhibitors to protect parts from rust and corrosion.

Compatibility

AMSOIL synthetic greases are compatible with most other greases and most seal materials. Preventive maintenance practices dictate thorough removal of one grease before installing a new grease, even when grease incompatibility is not expected.
