Primalec Airco Lube PAG46 compressor oil for R134a refrigerant systems (AC2173B)

Description

Genuine Primalec · Part no. AC2173B

Primalec Airco Lube PAG46 is the lightest of the three Airco Lube grades: a fully synthetic, mono end-capped PAG oil for the compressor in R134a car air conditioning, in a 1000ml bottle. Workshops use it to refill a system after a repair or top it up at a service, where the compressor data asks for PAG46.

Good to know

• Which cars take PAG46? Those whose vehicle or compressor data lists it; the compressor maker sets the oil type and viscosity grade, so check before buying rather than going by what was used last time.
• Can this oil go in my vacuum pump? No. Compressor oil and vacuum pump oil are not interchangeable: each goes only where it is made for, and the pump takes its own oil.
• Why does the bottle matter? Primalec uses a moisture barrier container for a longer shelf life, because PAG oil takes up moisture from the air; keep it capped between uses all the same.

Which one?

For compressors listed for a heavier grade, see Primalec Airco Lube PAG100 (AC2174B) or PAG150 (AC2175B); for the vacuum pump itself, the Primalec Airco Lube Vacuum Pump Oil (AC2178H).
