"I was initially attracted to AMSOIL for its price. Now, I'm switching all the plant's compressors to AMSOIL because I'm impressed with the product. AMSOIL Compressor Oil was found 'fit for ongoing service' after 8400 hours of use. Performance like that takes a top-quality product.
"AMSOIL gives me the best of both worlds: the top-quality performance of a synthetic and manufacturer-direct savings. That's an unbeatable combination."
- Don Ussery, World Color Printing		 AMSOIL SIROCCOSynthetic Compressor Oil.
It's like putting $1000 in your pocket!		 "I credit AMSOIL Compressor Oil with savings in five areas. By helping our compressors run 20 to 40°F cooler, we no longer need fans and special 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% less amperage with AMSOIL. Our oil consumption is way down. And we've gone from 3-month to 8000 hour compressor oil drain intervals. Multiply those savings times thousands of compressors and you can see why we're installing AMSOIL nationwide."
- John Small, Sears
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor and Gear Oils increase the productivity and profitability of your operations.AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are superior to conventional lubricants in areas of thermal and oxidative stability, expanded high and low operational temperature ranges, increased heat transfer capabilities, reduced energy consumption and extended drain capabilities. Synthetic PC Series PAO Compressor Oil
Synthetic Sirocco™ SE Series Compressor Oil

The leader in synthetic lubrication design, AMSOIL introduced the first first API rated synthetic motor oil in 1972		 Scientifically Designed
Created by science rather than by geological accident, AMSOIL synthetic base fluids are pure, synthesized fluids obtained by precise chemical reaction. The chemical makeup and unique properties improve virtually every aspect in lubrication - particularly in severe operating conditions.
Pure Construction
The carefully controlled and monitored processes used to manufacture AMSOIL synthetic base fluids eliminates impurities, contaminants and unsaturation - the primary cause of lubricant breakdown which commonly plague conventional lubricants. Uniform molecular geometry improves efficiency and has demonstrated reduced heat and energy consumption - a direct savings.		 Synthetic RC Series R & O Gear, Bearing and Hydraulic Oil

Bottom Line - AMSOIL synthetic compressor oils increase the productivity and profitability of your operations. By providing superior overall lubricating performance, you can expect longer lasting compressors, fewer unscheduled maintenance requirements, less oil comsumption and improved operating efficiency. In addition, AMSOIL compressor lubricants last several times longer than conventional lubricants resulting in lower maintenance and waste oil disposal costs. Through better lubrication, AMSOIL improves your bottom line. Synthetic Biodegradable Hydraulic Oils 
Synthetic AW Series Anti-Wear Hydraulic Oils
Advantage AMSOIL: Protection Synthetic SG Series EP Gear Oil

AMSOIL synthetic compressor oils form virtually no foam during ASTM D892 testing.		 AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils are designed for optimum compressor lubrication and protection. They extend compressor life and reduce maintenance costs by fighting all of the degradative processes found in compressor applications.

Heat Control
AMSOIL Synthetic compressor oils have demonstrated temperature reductions of hot running equipment using conventional lubricants by as much as 40°F. This is due to the oil's low coefficient of friction, low internal fluid friction and good thermal conductivity.

Sludge, Varnish, Lacquer and Carbon Control
AMSOIL compressor oils' unique synthetic base oil technology is inherently resistant to thermal and oxidative breakdown. Thse oils, combined with premium anti-oxidants, result in oils that eliminate or greatly minimize the formation of sludge, varnish, lacquer and carbon. Also, the good solvency characteristics clean systems as well as provide keep-clean performance.

Corrosion, Emulsion and Foam Control
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils are stable in the presence of water, and they readily separate with water.

This prevents unwanted oil/water emulsions that inhibit an oil's ability to lubricate. It allows for longer lubricant life, and it means water can easity be drained from the sump. The top quality rust preventatives offer complete and dependable protection to components in the presence of water or process contaminants. And an uninterrupted film of protection is ensured by anti-foam agents that keep the fluid foam-free even in high speed, high-pressure operations.

Wear Protection
AMSOIL Compressor Oils' non-detergent additive system is the last line of defense against wear. The additive system forms a strong barrier on parts, preventing metal to metal contact, and as the industry standard Four-Ball Wear Test (ASTM D4172) indicates, AMSOIL Compressor Oils outperform competitive compressor oils, even other synthetics. As a result, wear decreases, maintenance decreases, component life increases and you benefit financially.

All-Season Performance
Low pour points and good thermal stability allow AMSOIL Compressor Oils to be used in a wide temperature range. In cold temperatures, AMSOIL Compressor Oils provide easier starts and fast post start-up lubricant circulation to parts. In higher temperatures, AMSOIL Compressor Oils' film strength maintains a thick lubricating film between moving parts, ensuring complete protection all season long. These features reduce the need for seasonal fluid changes and mean an overall savings for you.

Greater Safety
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils make your plant a safer place to work by minimizing fire and explosion hazard. AMSOIL Compressor Oils' flash, fire and auto-ignition points are higher than those of competitive petroleum fluids. Plus, their resistance to carbon deposit formation combined with the ashless additive system minimizes the incidence of ignition-promoting hot spots.

Advantage AMSOIL: Savings

Your choice of compressor oil affects more than compressor life. It affects profitability. With AMSOIL Compressor Oils, you will increase your profitability through lower energy consumption, lower lubricant consumption and lower maintenance costs.

Enhanced Efficiency
Because of AMSOIL Compressor Oil's low frictional characteristics, losses due to drag are minimized, and energy used for gas compression is maximized. Also, little or no carbon forming on valves limits the detrimental effect of recompression, which is the result of hot air continually being recompressed due to deposits not allowing the exhaust valves to completely close during the intake stroke. Increase in efficiency can result in reduced power consumption by as much as 7 or 8 percent.

Reduced Lubricant Consumption
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils reduce fluid loss by readily separating oil from air in the separator, increasing the separator's efficiency and reducing the likelihood of oil ending up downstream. Also, their low volatility and excellent stability in the face of shearing forces and high temperatures leave more lube in the system, less lost to operations.

Lower Maintenance Costs
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils may be used up to 8000+ hours when used with a conscientiously applied oil sampling and preventative maintenance program. Extended drain intervals cut the downtime, labor and disposal costs associated with lube changes to an eighth of that required by conventional fluids.
