Compressor Lubricant

Home >Accessories > Lubricants

For use in cold weather and/or high moisture areas, compressor lubricant helps to remove water introduced into the airline from the compressor and protects against corrosion. It lubricates to extend part life as well as having a Special additive to minimise exhaust fog.

 

What is compressor lubricant?

Compressor lubricant is a specially designed oil used in air compressors to keep the internal parts running smoothly. Its main job is to reduce friction between moving components, which helps prevent wear and tear.

In addition to lubrication, compressor lubricant cools the compressor by absorbing heat generated during operation, seals gaps to prevent air leaks, and cleans the system by capturing debris. Using the right lubricant ensures the compressor performs efficiently, stays cool, and lasts longer.

What Happens if You Don’t Use Compressor Lubricant?

Not using compressor lubricant can lead to serious problems. Without proper lubrication, the moving parts experience increased friction, causing them to wear out quickly and potentially fail. Overheating can occur since there’s no oil to absorb and dissipate heat, which can damage the compressor components.

Air leaks may develop because the sealing function of the lubricant is missing, reducing compressor efficiency, or if the compressor fittings aren't attached appropriately. Overall, running a compressor without lubricant leads to reduced performance, higher maintenance costs, and a much shorter lifespan for the equipment.
