- VacOil 19 Grade is the standard choice for use in direct drive two stage oil sealed rotary vane vacuum pumps.
- VacOil 19 Grade is the least expensive oil option and is recommended when frequent oil changes are needed to remove contaminants and water from pump.
- VacOil 195 Grade is most often used for belt driven two stage oil sealed rotary vane vacuum pumps.
- It's higher viscosity offers excellent thermal stability and is ideal for a broad range of pumps under 300 cfm.
- VacOil 20 Grade is a upgraded oil vs the 19 grade and is also used in all two stage oil sealed rotary vane vacuum pumps.
- VacOil 20 Grade has a vapor pressure of less than 10^-6 torr vs 10^-5 torr for 19 grade and is slightly more viscous and more stable than 19 grade oil.
- VacOil 20 Grade is used to get better resistance to water and chemical attack and to decrease the frequency of oil changes.
- VacOil 130 Grade is used in rotary piston pumps from 150 cfm to 300 cfm with operating temperatures up to 160 °F.
- VacOil Elite Z is the most expensive of these oils and is recommend when long oil life is desired and to decrease the frequency of oil changes.
- VacOil Elite Z is often used in small two stage pumps that tend to run hotter and do not need much oil. It is also highly recommend for use for leak detector vacuum pumps.
- VacOil Elite Z is more resistant to water and chemical attack and is recommend for use with higher temperatures.
- VacOil FF Grade flushing fluid oil is used between oil changes to assist in the internal cleaning of the particles and sludge buildup in the vacuum pump.
- Its low viscosity helps it free contamination from internal parts allowing it to be flushed from the pump through the drain plug.
- VacOil FF Grade is the least expensive oil and is compatible for use with all other hydrocarbon oils.

Note: Any vacuum pumps that have been using a Fomblin, PFTE fluid or inert fluid instead of hydrocarbon fluids are not compatible with these oils. Do not use any hydrocarbon oils when pumping on oxygen.
