- SAE 30 viscosity grade matches piston compressor requirements
- ISO 68 rating ensures correct lubrication film strength
- Viscosity index 42 maintains stable thickness across temperatures
- Flash point 227 °C provides high-temperature safety margin
- Naphthenic base oil formulated for piston air compressors
Product identity
Chicago Pneumatic 1312101247 is a naphthenic-based compressor oil formulated for piston air compressors. The 1-quart bottle carries an SAE 30 viscosity grade and an ISO 68 rating.
Upgrade path
It replaces generic or lower-grade lubricants that lack the specified viscosity index of 42 and the tested viscosity values at 40°C and 100°C. The jump is worth it when the compressor manufacturer calls for ISO 68 fluid with a flash point of 227°C.
Practical limits
This oil is not food-grade, so it cannot be used in breathing-air or food-processing systems. The single-quart container suits top-offs or small sumps but will require multiple bottles for larger-capacity crankcases.
Highlights
- SAE 30 viscosity grade matches piston compressor requirements
- ISO 68 rating ensures correct lubrication film strength
- Viscosity index 42 maintains stable thickness across temperatures
- Flash point 227 °C provides high-temperature safety margin
- Naphthenic base oil formulated for piston air compressors

Questions about this item
What SAE viscosity grade and ISO viscosity grade does this Chicago Pneumatic compressor oil meet?
This oil is SAE 30 and ISO 68, matching piston air compressor specifications that call for those exact grades.
How do I add this oil to my piston air compressor without overfilling?
Pour the 1 qt bottle slowly into the crankcase fill port while watching the sight glass or dipstick, stopping at the full mark; the step most people miss is checking the level after the compressor runs once.
When should I change this naphthenic-base compressor oil based on its viscosity index and flash point?
With a viscosity index of 42 and a 227 °C flash point, follow the compressor manufacturer's hour-based interval; the oil's own data does not set a change schedule.
