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.
Typical buyers are 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Official product name | PureOil #12B — the formulation number published by FRICK | Match the full formulation number and FRICK part number on the existing container or service record. |
| FRICK part numbers | 333Q0001883 (5 US gal) / 333Q0001884 (55 US gal) | Quote the part number that matches the drum size you need. |
| Country of origin | United States (original pack) or China (equivalent grade produced to the same published specification) | State the required origin on the enquiry if the end user specifies it. |
| 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 #3 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. |
| Flooded screw compressor where a lower viscosity is required | The duty FRICK names for PureOil #12B. | Confirm the evaporator temperature (−50 °F / −45.5 °C and above), the 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.

This oil is manufactured and supplied by Guangzhou Qishanr Technologies Co., Ltd., trading as the brand QISHANR. The company is based in Foshan, Guangdong, adjacent to Guangzhou Port, and has been producing lubricants for more than 10 years from its own blending plant. That plant runs at an annual capacity of 6,000 tonnes, which is what allows us to hold stock on the grades we list and quote firm lead times rather than promising on behalf of a third party.
Refrigeration oils are the core of the business, but they are not the whole plant. The same lines produce general industrial lubricants, so a mixed enquiry that covers both refrigeration oils and ordinary industrial grades can be quoted, packed and shipped together instead of being split across suppliers.
This is not the full range. Specialised ester base oils and lubricant additives are produced in-house as well, which is the reason the synthetic ester grades can be specified to a target rather than bought off a shelf. If the grade you need is not listed above, send the specification or the product you are replacing and we will confirm whether we produce it.
Long-term partners get pricing that reflects a stable manufacturing base rather than a trading margin, and the same technical contact stays with the account from grade selection through to repeat orders.
The grade designation, FRICK part numbers, recommended duty and application notes on this page follow the manufacturer document listed below.
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.
FRICK lists PureOil #12B for hydrocarbon and other compressed-gas duty, and recommends it for flooded screw compressors where a lower viscosity is required, at evaporator temperatures of −50 °F (−45.5 °C) and above. Confirm the exact compressor series and refrigerant against the compressor manual and the current FRICK oil specification.
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.
