Product Description
MOLYKOTE L-1246FM Synthetic Compressor Oil is an ISO VG 46 PAO synthetic compressor oil for compressors and food machinery. Its typical kinematic viscosity is 47 cSt at 40 deg C and 7.9 cSt at 100 deg C, with a viscosity index of 138 and a typical pour point of -42 deg C. The formulation includes rust-and-oxidation additives. MOLYKOTE L-1246FM is NSF H1 certified for lubricated parts where incidental food contact up to 10 ppm may occur.

General Properties
Specific Gravity
0.829
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume.
For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.
