hcpro keep it running PAG-46 UV Dye A/C Compressor Oil 8oz — Synthetic PAG-46 Lubricant with Leak-Detecting UV Tracer

HCPRO PAG 46 UV Dye A/C Compressor Oil is an 8oz synthetic PAG-46 lubricant pre-mixed with a UV tracer to lubricate automotive A/C compressors and make refrigerant leaks easy to find.

This professional-grade polyalkylene glycol (PAG) oil is designed for modern automotive air conditioning systems that require PAG 46 viscosity. It combines high-viscosity synthetic base oil with a UV-reactive dye and performance additives to protect compressor components, improve thermal stability, and simplify leak diagnostics under ultraviolet inspection lights. The formula includes anti-wear agents, corrosion inhibitors, and conditioners to maintain internal system health while helping technicians and DIYers locate leaks faster during service and recharge jobs.

How does the integrated UV dye help find A/C leaks?

The built-in UV tracer disperses throughout the refrigerant circuit and illuminates under a UV or black light, revealing oil stains and leak points that are otherwise hard to spot. This reduces diagnostic time and helps target repairs more accurately.

• Visible fluorescence at leak sites under UV inspection
• Works with common shop UV lamps and inspection lights
• Saves time compared with dye-less diagnostic methods

Will this oil protect and extend compressor life?

Yes — the PAG 46 synthetic base and additive package provide lubricity and corrosion protection tailored for automotive A/C compressors. It helps reduce metal-to-metal wear and resists thermal breakdown under typical operating conditions.

• Anti-wear agents reduce component friction
• Corrosion inhibitors protect internal parts over time
• Stable viscosity preserves lubrication at operating temperatures

Is HCPRO PAG 46 UV Dye compatible with my vehicle?

This product is formulated specifically for systems that require PAG 46 viscosity oil. Always confirm your vehicle manufacturer’s A/C oil specification before adding any lubricant to avoid compatibility issues.

• Suitable for systems specifying PAG 46 oil
• Not recommended for systems requiring mineral or PAG 100 without conversion
• Check service manual or parts guide for correct oil type and charge amounts

How should technicians use this 8oz bottle safely and effectively?

Use the 8oz bottle as an oil top-up during repairs or refrigerant recharges, following standard safety and service procedures. Avoid overfilling and prevent contamination by keeping the bottle capped until use and using clean tools during service.

• Add measured amounts according to manufacturer guidelines
• Use personal protective equipment and work in ventilated areas
• Store sealed bottle away from extreme heat and direct sunlight

Who is this for? HCPRO PAG 46 UV Dye A/C Compressor Oil is aimed at professional mechanics, HVAC and auto A/C technicians, and knowledgeable DIY car owners who maintain modern automotive air conditioning systems requiring PAG 46. It’s ideal for diagnostic checks, routine maintenance, and compressor protection during repairs. Always verify system compatibility and follow vehicle manufacturer instructions for oil type and quantity before use.
