Description
Alpha Syn 68 ISO 68 Synthetic Air Compressor Oil is a fully synthetic hydrocarbon ISO 68 air compressor oil engineered for rotary screw and rotary vane compressors operating under higher load conditions. Packaged in a convenient 5-gallon pail, this high-performance synthetic compressor lubricant is ideal for facilities implementing scheduled maintenance programs and mid-volume oil replenishment.
Designed as a premium alternative to many OEM PAO-based compressor oils, Alpha Syn 68 delivers up to 8,000 hours of service life at temperatures up to 200°F, supporting long operating intervals and reduced downtime in demanding industrial environments.
High-Performance ISO 68 Synthetic Compressor Oil
Formulated with advanced synthetic hydrocarbon (SH) base oils, this ISO 68 synthetic air compressor lubricant provides excellent oxidation stability, strong anti-wear protection, and reliable water separation. Its robust additive package helps prevent varnish formation while maintaining consistent lubrication under continuous-duty operation.
ISO 68 viscosity is commonly specified for compressors operating at elevated temperatures or higher pressure conditions where enhanced film strength is required.
