Leer másThe Benefits of Switching from Mineral Oil Based Lubricants to Synthetic Lubricants in Air Compressors
Oil is the lifeblood of most machinery, from vehicles and lawn mowers to sewing machines and air compressors. Inside of each machine exists a web of moving pieces, most of which consist of metal surfaces that — without proper lubrication — could end up damaged through repeated internal friction. When friction gets out of hand, […]
