Breaker and Hammer AIR-OIL With Anti-Icing Properties

Atlas Copco introduces its Breaker and Hammer AIR OIL with anti-icing properties. The biodegradable lubricant is developed for Atlas Copco TEX pneumatic breakers and hammers.

Continuous lubrication is needed even more in times of frosty weather conditions. Pneumatic breakers and hammers might experience downtime from freezing caused by ice formations in and around ports and valves. This is what Atlas Copco Breaker and Hammer AIR-OIL avoids with its ice-dissolving power.

The lubricant has been especially designed for demanding applications. All pneumatic tools used under tough conditions are facing the risk of corrosion. The fully synthetic Atlas Copco Breaker and Hammer AIR-OIL permanently absorbs moisture and protects pneumatic tools against corrosion. It ensures smooth, continuous operation even under extreme conditions.

Continuous lubrication optimizes the machine lifetime, reduces maintenance costs and provides a trouble-free ownership. Apart from Atlas Copco TEX breakers and hammers, the new Breaker and Hammer AIR-OIL can also protect all other pneumatic tools in the market.

Breaker and Hammer AIR-OIL is readily biodegradable according to OECD 301. This defines a product with biodegradability over 60% within 10 days.
