SYNCON® R&O OIL (ISO VG 32-68)

SYNTHETIC PAO-BASED, RUST & OXIDATION-INHIBITED AIR COMPRESSOR OIL; ISO VG 32-68

Phillips 66® Syncon R&O Oil (ISO VG 32-68) is a premium quality, synthetic, rust and oxidation (R&O)-inhibited circulating oil developed primarily for use in rotary screw and rotary vane air compressors operating under severe-service conditions or at extreme temperatures. It is particularly recommended for use in applications where operating conditions may be unfavorable or too severe for conventional mineral oil-based circulating oils.

SYNCON® R&O OIL (ISO VG 32-68)

Features & Benefits

  • Outstanding resistance to thermal breakdown at high temperatures
  • Outstanding oxidation resistance to minimize deposit and varnish formation
  • Protects against wear
  • Protects against rust and corrosion
  • Good water-separating properties
  • Good foam resistance
  • Excellent low-temperature fluidity

Applications

  • Rotary and centrifugal air compressors where the manufacturer specifies a PAO-based lubricant
  • Plain and rolling-element bearings operating at very high or very low temperatures
  • Electric motor, fan, and blower bearings
  • Vacuum pumps
  • Industrial equipment operating over a wide temperature range where an inhibited mineral oil is recommended
