TRUEGARD ROTARY 46 is a high-performance synthetic air compressor oil formulated specifically for rotary screw and vane compressors. With an ISO 46 viscosity grade, this lubricant is engineered to deliver exceptional protection, reliability, and efficiency in demanding industrial environments.

Key Features

·      Synthetic Base: Provides superior oxidation stability, reduced deposit formation, and extended oil life compared to conventional mineral oils.

·      Non-Detergent Formula: Designed to minimize foaming and maintain optimal lubrication without introducing unwanted detergents that can affect compressor performance.

·      ISO 46 Viscosity: Ensures consistent lubrication and film strength across a wide range of operating temperatures, supporting efficient compressor operation.

·      Extended Drain Intervals: Formulated to withstand severe operating conditions, TRUEGARD ROTARY 46 enables longer service intervals, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

·      Excellent Wear Protection: Guards critical compressor components against wear, corrosion, and rust, helping to maximize equipment lifespan.

Applications

TRUEGARD ROTARY 46 is ideal for use in rotary screw and vane air compressors operating under severe conditions where reliability and performance are paramount. It is suitable for a wide range of industrial settings, including manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and other environments demanding extended drain intervals and robust equipment protection.

Benefits

·      Improved compressor efficiency and reliability

·      Reduced maintenance frequency and associated costs

·      Enhanced protection against wear, deposits, and corrosion

·      Consistent performance in harsh operating conditions

 

 

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • TRUEGARD ROTARY 46 is specifically formulated for rotary screw and vane air compressors. It is not described as suitable for reciprocating (piston-style) compressors, so always confirm your compressor type before switching lubricants.

  • ISO 46 refers to the oil's kinematic viscosity at 40°C, meaning it provides a medium-weight film that balances flow at startup with adequate load-carrying capacity at operating temperature. Most rotary screw and vane compressors specify either ISO 32, 46, or 68 - always check your compressor OEM manual to confirm which viscosity grade is required before selecting this product.

  • Detergent additives found in some engine or hydraulic oils can promote foaming and emulsification in the moist air-oil environment inside a compressor, which degrades lubrication and can damage seals. The non-detergent formulation of TRUEGARD ROTARY 46 is designed to minimize foaming and maintain stable lubrication without these side effects.

  • Mixing synthetic and mineral-based oils, or two different synthetic formulations, is generally not recommended because it can dilute the performance properties of both oils and potentially cause compatibility issues. For best results, drain and flush the compressor system before switching to TRUEGARD ROTARY 46.

  • The synthetic base provides superior oxidation stability and resists deposit formation at high operating temperatures better than mineral oil, which translates to fewer varnish and carbon buildups on compressor internals. Combined with the extended drain intervals this enables, total maintenance costs and downtime can be meaningfully reduced over the service life of the equipment.

  • The product data does not indicate any food-grade (H1) certification or suitability for breathing-air systems. For compressors used in food processing or applications where incidental food contact or air quality standards apply, verify applicable certifications with the supplier before use.
