AERO FGXL
Extended Life Food Grade Air Compressor Lubricant (Series 254)
Next-generation synthetic NSF H1 food grade air compressor lubricant with significantly longer fluid life and active carbon and varnish removal; meets DIN 51506 VDL requirements and covers rotary screw, rotary vane, piston compressors, hydraulic systems, and air tools in a single food-grade formulation.
Product Overview
AERO FGXL is an extended-life food grade air compressor lubricant formulated with next-generation synthetic base oils to deliver significantly longer fluid life and cleaner operation than standard mineral-based food grade products. Registered NSF H1 under FDA 21 CFR 178.3570 and meeting DIN 51506 VDL requirements, it combines compliance with active carbon and varnish removal — helping restore and maintain compressor cleanliness over its extended service interval rather than simply maintaining the status quo.
Fluid life reaches up to 14,000 hours at discharge temperatures below 90°C, nearly double that of standard food grade formulations. Available from VG 32 to VG 150, AERO FGXL covers rotary screw, rotary vane, and piston compressors as well as hydraulic systems and air tools — making it a practical single-product solution for food processing facilities where both performance and food-grade compliance are non-negotiable.
