Oils for pneumatic tools

One of the key parameters of the optimal and correct use of a pneumatic tool is correct additional lubrication of distributed air.

  • This additional lubrication influences the working life of the pneumatic tools and devices used.
  • Correct lubrication of the compressed air may prolong the working life of the tool applied and at the same time reduce repair costs and minimise downtimes.

Oils for pneumatic tools – from our standard suppliers:

OPTIMIZER oil

Optimizer oil made by Atlas Copco is a lubricant based on white oil, designed for pneumatic tools and disk engines.
This oil provides excellent protection against wear and contains additives preventing oxidation and frothing.
Compared to traditional oils for mist lubrication, Optimizer oil for pneumatic tools provides a better working environment and is recommended for environments on which high demands are placed.

  • Technical data:

Temperature range: -25 to +70 °C
Density at 15 °C is 869 kg/m3
Viscosity at 40 °C is 22 mm2/s
Congealing point is -48 °C
