   Consequently, air treatment identical to that used for an oil-flooded screw compressor is frequently required to ensure quality compressed air. In small piston compressors carpenters homeowners sometimes use "oil free" compressors in which oil free is a reference to not using oil but Teflon type of coatings permanently adhered to wear surfaces.
