ISO VG 100 grade oils
Viscosity is the first thing to settle when choosing an oil: load-carrying capacity, film thickness and cold-start behaviour all follow from it. This page covers the equipment that typically calls for ISO VG 100 and lists the catalogue products in that grade.
Where this grade is used
- Compressor & Refrigeration Oils
- Engine Oils
- Gear & Bearing Oils
- Greases
- Hydraulic & Turbine Oils
- Specialities & Other Fluids

Before changing grade
- Moving one grade up increases film thickness but makes cold pumpability harder.
- Moving one grade down reduces churning losses yet raises the risk of film breakdown under high load.
- The equipment builder's viscosity window should be the reference for any change.
- If the system is not fully drained, the resulting mixed viscosity has to be accounted for.
