Have not seen mention of air tool oil, so I thought I would post some comments on it as I just went though the hassle of selecting some BITOG style:
Bostitch brand: 5W, non detergent mineral
Paslode Cordless (Impulse): ~30W, Polypropylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether base with N-Phenyl-Alpha-Naphthylamine (antioxidant modifier?) Guess those cordless gas-powered units make some heat. Not sure how it would react with a typical pneumatic tool.
Senco: ~20W, hydrotreated petroleum with custom additives (per msds)
Red Line makes air tool oil as well as Porter Cable (branded), Mobile, etc. I was looking for some oil for my two Porter Cable pneumatic nailers and had trouble finding 10W oil as Porter recommends. Ended up with the Senco brand from lowes (easy to get). Would have liked to get the Porter Cable brand or the Red Line, but was mail order only and shipping was more than the item. It was cold and raining/snowing this weekend...
