Frequently Asked Questions
1. Which compressor models are compatible with the 1616728180 air end?
This air end is specifically designed for use with Atlas Copco GA series oil-injected screw compressors. We recommend verifying compatibility with your specific machine’s serial number before ordering.
2. What are the main advantages of an oil-injected screw air end?
Oil-injected screw air ends, like the K-36 C111, offer several key benefits. The oil acts as a lubricant to reduce wear, a sealant to prevent air leakage, and a coolant to dissipate heat generated during compression. This results in higher efficiency, greater reliability, and a longer operational lifespan compared to other technologies.
3. Is this a genuine Atlas Copco part?
Yes, the 1616728180 is a genuine Atlas Copco Original part. Using genuine parts ensures perfect fitment, optimal performance, and maintains your compressor’s warranty. We strongly advise against using non-genuine parts, which can lead to reduced efficiency, potential damage, and costly repairs.
4. What is the expected lifespan of the K-36 C111 air end?
With proper maintenance and the use of genuine Atlas Copco lubricants and parts, the K-36 C111 air end is engineered for a long and reliable service life. Adhering to the recommended service intervals outlined in your compressor’s manual will maximize its longevity and ensure consistent performance.
5. Does installing a new air end require a specialized technician?
Yes, we highly recommend that the replacement of an air end be performed by a certified and experienced Atlas Copco service technician. Proper installation, alignment, and commissioning are critical to ensure the safety, efficiency, and reliability of your compressed air system.

Stutter –
Trustworthy air end and good service!
We were facing repeated system shutdowns with a non-original air end. After switching to the Atlas Copco original K-36 C111 air end, compressor stability improved significantly. We achieved 12% higher airflow and noticed less than 1% oil carryover in the lines. After 8 months, we’ve had zero unplanned downtime. This part has completely restored confidence in our system.
