Air Tool & Compressor Oil – Premium Lubricants (NZ)

Keep your air tools and compressors running smoothly with quality air tool oil and compressor oil designed for pneumatic equipment and air compressors. Regular lubrication prevents rust, reduces wear, and helps extend the life of your tools and compressors — especially in heavy‑use environments like workshops, automotive garages and trade sites.

We offer a range of lubricants in convenient sizes including 250 ml, 1 litre and 2 litre bottles — perfect for daily tool maintenance and yearly compressor servicing.


Why Quality Oil Matters

Whether you’re running impact wrenches, ratchets, sanders, drills, or air compressors, keeping components well‑lubricated delivers:

Reduced wear & tear: Special additives protect moving parts under load.
Rust & moisture protection: Prevents corrosion in internal passages.
Improved performance: Smooth operation reduces hesitation and noise.
Longer tool life: Regular oiling is one of the easiest ways to extend equipment lifespan.


Available Lubricants

Air Tool Oil – Ideal for daily lubrication of pneumatic tools like impact wrenches, ratchets and sanders.
Air Compressor Oil 2 Litre – Heavy‑duty compressor oil with high performance additives for long service life.
• Multiple Sizes Available – Bottle sizes to suit both hobbyists and professionals alike.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What’s the difference between air tool oil and compressor oil?
A: Air tool oil is a lightweight lubricant used on pneumatic tools to reduce internal wear, rust and moisture buildup. Compressor oil is formulated for the heavier lubrication needs of air compressors and includes additives that protect internal components under heat and pressure.

Q: How often should I oil my air tools?
A: It’s best to add a few drops of air tool oil daily before use to ensure smooth performance and prevent rust — especially if tools are used frequently.

Q: When should I change my compressor oil?
A: Most compressors benefit from an annual oil change, but check your owner’s manual — heavy use may require more frequent oil changes.

Q: What oil viscosity is best for air tools?
A: Air tool lubricants are typically low‑viscosity so they mist easily and reach moving parts quickly without blocking lines or orifices.

Q: Can I use general machine oil instead of air tool oil?
A: While general machine oil might work in a pinch, specialised air tool oil is engineered to handle high‑speed pneumatic tool internals and prevent rust and deposits more effectively.
