Why synthetic? Because synthetic lubricants are
superior to conventional petroleum lubricants. Petroleum
lubricants 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 petroleum oil chemicals invite oxidation
in high temperature operations. Oxidation quickly 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
tempresature applications than conventional lubes may be
and promotes their ability to be used for extended drain
intervals. In fact, AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are specifically
formulated for extended drain intervals.
The molecular uniformity of carfully 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.
"I credit AMSOIL Compressor Oil with savings
in five areas. By helping our compressors run 20 to
40 degrees cooler, we no longer need fans and speical
ventilation systems for heat reduction. With those
cooler operating temperatures and the fluid's superior
stability, 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. Our oil consumption
is way down. And we've gone from three month to 8000
hour compressor drain intervals. Multiply those savings
times thousands of compressors and you can see why
we're installing AMSOIL nationwide."

PC-Series Compressor Oils
AMSOIL
Synthetic PC Series oils provide long compressor life through
reduced component wear, corrosion protection, water resistance
and lubricant breakdown resistance. These oils reduce maintenance costs by extending
drain intervals and lowering labor and used product disposal
requirements. Product Code: PCH, PCI, PCJ, PCK, PCL
Synthetic
AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are shear stable, long-life
lubricants based on high quality synthetic oil technology.
These oils are formulated with a premium additive system
that inhibits oxidation (preventing acid and viscosity increase),
inhibits rust, and inhibits foam (preventing spongy hydraulics). Product Codes: AWF, AWG, AWH, AWI, AWJ, AWK
AMSOIL
TBI hydraulic oil is a premium lubricant designed to biodegrade
to its natural state when subjected to sunlight, water and
microbial activity. TBI has a very low toxicity level because
the oil is formulated with ashless additives that do not
contain heavy metals. Product Code: TBI
Amsoil
SG Series Extreme Pressure Gear Oils are long-life, extended
drain premium gear oils. SG Oils incorporate the highest
quality shear-stable, synthetic fluids, resutling in extended
operational temperature ranges and superior hydrolytic stability
and thermal oxidative resistance. SG series Gear Oils are
the primary recommendation for gear applications requiring
an extreme-pressure lubricant. Product Code: SGM
These
high quality, long life fluids last several times longer
in use than mineral-based oils. AMSOIL SE Series Synthetic
Ester Compressor Oils/Coolants are fully formulated with
non-detergent additives and are designed for use in rotary
screw, vane and reciprocating compressors. SE Series Synthetic
Ester Compressor Oils/Coolants increase operating efficiency,
reducing money spent on energy, repair and maintenance costs. Product Code: SEI
Amsoil's
RC series lubricants are made from high quality base stocks
and additive systems. This product prevents wear and protects
equipment by maintaining its viscosity, resisting thermal
and oxidative breakdown, incorporating anti-wear additives,
preventing rust, and resisting the degrading effects of
water. RC series oils are primarily recommended for
gear and bearing applications and circulating systems requiring
R&O and/or anti-wear additive technology.
Product Code: RCH
AMSOIL
Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Oil is the modern
lubricant for modern farm and industrial equipment. Engineered
specifically to meet the tough applications of heavy-duty,
hydraulic-powered operations. Provides exceptional lubrication
to reduce wear, resist heat, protect against rust and extend
fluid and equipment service life. Product Code: ATH
AMSOIL
Semi-Synthetic WL Series is a high-quality, heavy duty lubricant
composed of synthetic base oils, large molecule petroleum
base oils and additives specifically designed for EP applications
found in gear, chain and machine tool applications. This
combination of base oils and EP additives provides the excellent
lubricity and film strength needed to prevent scoring and
wear during equipment operations. Product Code: WLJ, WLK, WLL, WLM
