Coltri oil substitute

[Sebastian Aguirre]

Hi guys,

I have an MCH6 Coltri compressor that I use to fill paintball tanks.
It has a year of operation, no issues. I have changed the oil three times already with the 1 liter that I bought with the compressor.

As I dont use the compressor for breathing air, I guess I could put a cheaper oil, but I cant find any specification for the oil anywhere except that it is "Coltri 750 oil"

So, the question is if somebody knows how to specify the oil from other brands.

Thanks, Sebastian

If you are buying from the USA, then the 751 is the substitute. However, it is still not cheap at around $60 for a gallon jug. But, once you have invested in the jug, it will probably last you for a LONG time since you only use a half liter per change.

The Coltri CE 750 oil is made by Aluchem out of Italy and is called Alusynt CE 750 which is an ISO 150 diester oil. You might be able to find a distributor in Argentina.

Thanks Guys,

I was able to get Shell Corena S2 P 150, wich looks like it is a fair equivalent. I can source it locally at 14 usd x liter, against 60 usd plus shipping for the oil the Coltri distributor sells.
