SAE 20 ND for Atlas

[JPMacG]

Browsing the shelves at my local True Value hardware store, I spotted this. Is this the elusive SAE 20 non-detergent oil that Atlas lathes and mills call for?

Not asking for myself - I have a 5 quart container from when Tractor Supply stocked it - but maybe someone else can benefit.

Yes, that's the stuff. Never mind that they are calling it Compressor Oil. That's just a marketing gimmick. Most of their customers drive Oriental sedans that use something different.

What was the price per quart or per gallon?

 

[JPMacG]

$4.99 per quart. They only had quarts.

Well, that is about $20.00 per gallon which is about what I paid for the last Mobile ISO 68 Circulating Oil that I bought from Enco.
