Frick PureOil #12B is a PAG synthetic compressor oil supplied for industrial refrigeration lubricant procurement. The available drum photographs identify the formulation as #12B and show a 55 US gallon / 208 L package. A second label photograph shows 190 kg net weight.
This page is designed for buyers replacing an existing Frick #12B charge or sourcing oil for planned compressor maintenance. Lubricant selection should follow the compressor manual and the current oil specification, not product name similarity alone.
| Item | Available Information | Buyer Check |
|---|---|---|
| Brand / Product | Frick PureOil #12B | Match the full formulation number on the existing container or service record. |
| Lubricant Chemistry | Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) synthetic compressor oil | Do not select by viscosity alone; verify oil chemistry and system history. |
| Package | 55 US gal / 208 L drum | Confirm required drum count and destination handling conditions. |
| Net Weight | 190 kg shown on the supplied drum label | Use the current quotation and shipping documents for freight planning. |
| Formulation | #12B | Do not substitute #12, #13, #14, #2A or #3A without written technical confirmation. |
| Documents | Current TDS, SDS/MSDS, label and available batch documents on request | State document requirements before order confirmation. |
| Procurement Signal | Fit Direction | Required Confirmation |
|---|---|---|
| Existing system is already charged with Frick PureOil #12B | Strongest replacement signal. | Photograph the current oil label and provide compressor model, refrigerant and required quantity. |
| Frick industrial refrigeration compressor | Brand match alone is not sufficient. | Check the exact compressor series and the lubricant named in its current service documentation. |
| Ammonia / R717 refrigeration plant | #12B may be evaluated only when the system documentation specifies it. | Confirm oil chemistry, viscosity, oil separator arrangement and any retrofit history. |
| Hydrocarbon or process-gas compression | Requires project-specific engineering review. | Provide gas composition, operating temperatures and OEM lubricant requirement. |
| Unknown oil or mixed-oil history | Do not top up based on appearance or brand name. | Identify the existing lubricant and obtain a written changeover procedure. |
For the chemistry and handling differences that affect procurement, read the PAG refrigeration oil guide. Buyers comparing adjacent Frick formulations can also review Frick #13 and Frick #14, but these are separate formulations and are not presented as substitutes for #12B.

Frick PureOil #12B is a PAG synthetic compressor lubricant identified by formulation #12B. The supplied product photographs show a 55 US gallon / 208 L drum.
The drum labels in the supplied photos show 208 L volume and 190 kg net weight. Confirm current packing and shipping weight in the quotation because logistics documents govern the shipment.
This listing does not state an ISO viscosity grade because the available working references conflict. Use the current Frick TDS, compressor manual and batch documents to confirm viscosity before ordering.
No. The Frick brand or compressor family alone does not establish lubricant fit. Confirm the exact model, refrigerant or process gas, current oil and OEM service requirement.
Do not mix it with another oil unless the compressor/OEM documentation explicitly permits the combination. Unknown or mixed-oil histories require identification and a written changeover procedure.
Send the current oil-label photo, compressor model, refrigerant or process gas, required drum quantity, destination and required documents. These details allow the supplier to check the request before commercial confirmation.
