What is pneumatic oil? Is it the same as hydraulic oil?

Answer:

The main function of pneumatic lubricating oil is to lubricate, and the main function of hydraulic oil is to transmit pressure, and the two can not be mixed
Pneumatic and hydraulic oils are not oils. Pneumatic lubricants require high oxidation resistance and lubricity, while hydraulic oils require good abrasion resistance, oxidation resistance, lubricity and foam resistance as well as anti emulsification effects. Pneumatic lubricants are generally thinner than hydraulic oils.
Pneumatic oil is a kind of lubricant used by pneumatic tools and equipment, mainly attached to the surface of the cylinder, piston and internal rotating parts. The main function is to prevent rust in the pneumatic components, lubricate and retard the aging of the sealing ring.
