Clavus – Mineral oil based refrigeration compressor oil


Clavus oil has been formulated specifically for the lubrication of refrigeration compressors and to be completely compatible with CFC and Ammonia refrigerant gases. Clavus oil is chemically stable and will provide excellent performance over a long period of time. It has been formulated to be used at very low evaporator temperatures which dictate the use of a naphthenic rather than a paraffinic based oil.
