Hey, Im looking for some oil help as searches have not come up with answers Im looking for and after spending some time on this site I thought this could be the best place to ask!
My needs are a bit of a strange... Im looking for a oil which can perform under subzero temperature conditions. The application of the oil is to be used in a pneumatic piston motor where the large pressure drop in the air results in air temperatures to drop as low as -80C (-112F). As for the temperature of the components within the motor, this has not been accurately estimated but safe to assume it will be quite cold.
Looking for something that still holds it lubrication properties at these low temperatures and still has reasonable pressure resistance and viscosity.
This is all for a University project I'm working on, but it seems to have a lot of people stumped! Any help will be appreciated,
Cheers!
