For premium air compressor oil that lubricates high pressure reciprocating compressors (piston compressors), use Shell Corena S2 P 100 Air Compressor Oil. It's made for higher pressure air compressors that run at discharge temperatures of up to 220 degrees C. It safeguards against wear and corrosion of metal surfaces, improves the efficiency of the system and provides safer and cleaner air lines during discharge. Shell Corena S2 P oils also increase oil life, which results in maintenance cost savings. We also have their 150 viscosity grade oil.

Reciprocating (Piston) Air Compressor Oil

Long oil life Maintenance saving: Shell Corena S2 P allows the interval between valve and piston maintenance to be extended under certain applications. Compressors can be kept in service for much longer periods, operating at a consistently high level of efficiency. Extended maintenance capability is supported by resistance to formation of carbon deposits and lacquer on valves and piston crowns at high working temperatures and pressures. Outstanding wear protection: Shell Corena S2 P helps provide effective protection of internal metal surfaces from corrosion and wear to help prolong the life of critical parts such as bearings and pistons. Maintaining system efficiency: Shell Corena S2 P helps prevent the formation of carbon deposits and lacquer on valves and piston crowns at high working temperatures and pressures. These can cause serious damage, lower compressor efficiency and increase maintenance costs. In addition, Shell Corena S2 P has good water separation to help prevent accelerated corrosion, facilitating easy condensate draining. Enhanced air line safety: In discharge air-lines, the combination of rust particles, dispersed in carbonaceous deposits, coupled with heat from recently compressed air, can cause a reaction leading to the possibility of fires and explosion. Shell Corena S2 P helps to minimise the likelihood of this danger.

Main Applications
Reciprocating air compressors Shell Corena S2 P is suitable for use in industrial reciprocating air compressors operating with air discharge temperatures of up to 220 C.

Breathing air compressors
Shell Corena S2 P may be used in breathing air compressors, provided subsidiary clean-up apparatus is used to ensure that the air produced is fit for breathing.

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • This oil is specifically formulated for industrial reciprocating (piston) air compressors. It is not a general-purpose compressor oil for rotary screw or vane-type compressors — its performance chemistry targets the high-pressure, high-temperature demands of piston-driven compression systems.

  • Shell Corena S2 P 100 is rated for use in reciprocating air compressors operating with air discharge temperatures of up to 220°C, making it suitable for higher-pressure applications where heat buildup is a significant concern.

  • Yes, it may be used in breathing air compressors, but only when subsidiary clean-up apparatus is also in place to ensure the air produced is fit for breathing. It should not be relied upon alone to make compressed air safe for respiration.

  • Shell Corena S2 P oils are compatible with all sealing materials commonly used in air compressors, so there is no need to replace or upgrade seals before switching to this product.

  • By resisting the formation of carbon deposits and lacquer on valves and piston crowns — which are common causes of efficiency loss and damage at high temperatures and pressures — this oil allows the interval between valve and piston maintenance to be extended in certain applications, keeping compressors in service longer at a consistently high level of efficiency.

  • This product is the ISO VG 100 grade, which suits a broad range of reciprocating compressor applications. A 150 viscosity grade is also available for systems that require a heavier oil — consult your compressor manufacturer's specifications to confirm which grade is recommended for your equipment.
