FAQs
What is the primary application for MORRIS Air Force EP22?
MORRIS Air Force EP22 is primarily designed for the lubrication of air tools of all types, including drills, jack hammers, saws, and wrenches, as well as pneumatic motors, rams, and cylinders.
What are the key benefits of using EP22?
Key benefits include excellent anti-wear and EP properties, protection against rust and corrosion, superior mist-forming for efficient lubrication, an anti-fogging agent for a healthier environment, and a tackiness additive for severe conditions.
Can I use this oil for general industrial lubrication?
Yes, it can be used for general lubrication in industrial applications, but its formulation is specifically optimized for the demands of air tools and pneumatic equipment.
How does the anti-fogging agent work?
The anti-fogging agent helps to reduce the amount of fine oil mist suspended in the air, contributing to a cleaner and healthier working environment for operators.
What is the purpose of the tackiness additive?
The tackiness additive improves the oil's ability to cling to moving parts, ensuring better lubrication and protection, especially under heavy load or in severe working conditions.
How often should I lubricate my air tools with EP22?
Lubrication frequency depends on the tool's usage and the type of oiler system. Consult your tool manufacturer's manual for specific recommendations. Inline oilers should be refilled as needed, while manual application might require lubrication before each use or at set intervals.
What does 'low viscosity' mean for air tools?
Low viscosity means the oil flows easily. For air tools, this allows for efficient atomization and misting, ensuring the lubricant can reach all moving parts within the tool effectively through the compressed air stream.
Troubleshooting
Air tool performance is sluggish or inconsistent.
Check the inline oiler for correct oil level and flow rate adjustment. Ensure the air supply is adequate. Clean any blockages in the tool's air intake or lubrication ports. Verify that the correct oil (EP22) is being used.
Excessive oil mist in the working area.
Verify the antifoamant is working effectively. Adjust the oiler's misting rate to a lower setting. Ensure the tool is not over-lubricated. Check for any leaks in the air lines or tool body.
Visible rust or corrosion on air tool components.
Ensure the tool is being properly lubricated with EP22. Drain and dry tools after use in wet conditions. Check for any water ingress into the air supply system. Verify the oil's protective additives are not depleted due to age or contamination.
Oiler is not dispensing oil.
Check the oil level in the reservoir. Ensure the connection to the air line is secure and there are no air leaks. Inspect the oiler mechanism for blockages or damage. Try cleaning the oiler or replacing it if necessary.
Pros and Cons

- Offers robust protection against wear and extreme pressure for air tools.
- Prevents rust and corrosion, even with water present.
- Improves air quality with an anti-fogging agent.
- Ensures efficient lubrication delivery through superior misting.
- Reduces operational issues by minimizing deposit formation.
Cons
- Primarily designed for air tools, limiting its general-purpose use.
- Low viscosity may not be suitable for all industrial lubrication needs.
- Requires specific application methods for optimal misting.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: MORRIS Air Force EP22 is typically used in inline oilers or through tool oil ports. Ensure the oiler is compatible with low-viscosity oils and is correctly adjusted according to the tool manufacturer's recommendations to achieve optimal misting. For manual application, ensure the tool's lubrication points are clean before application.
Compatibility: This oil is specifically formulated for pneumatic tools and air motors. It is recommended for a wide range of air tools including road drills, jack hammers, air saws, and torque wrenches. It can also be used for pneumatic rams and cylinders. While it can be used for general industrial lubrication, its low viscosity and specialized additives are optimized for air-powered equipment. Avoid using this oil in systems requiring high-viscosity lubricants or where compatibility with extreme temperature ranges beyond its specification is needed.
Care: Store the oil in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the container is tightly sealed when not in use to prevent contamination and evaporation. Regularly inspect oiler reservoirs for cleanliness and refill as needed, using only genuine MORRIS Air Force EP22 to maintain performance integrity. Clean any spills immediately with an absorbent material.
