Berp Bio Oils are one of our favorites here at ACB, the heavier No. 3 oil is our go-to oil for most of the vintage horns at the shop. Sold as single 1oz bottles (or pickup a refill bottle of 8oz!)
A New and Improved Formulation
BerpBioOil presents a new formulation offered in three viscosities: light (1), medium (2), and heavy (3); 1 oz. bottles. This new oil has been developed by the makers of the Berp together with the scientists of Novvi and is made in the USA from sustainably grown sugarcane. Novvi’s mission statement “we grow revolutionary oils and lubricants that protect equipment and our community” fits Berp and Co.’s. commitment to locally produced sustainable products.
- Non-toxic
- Petroleum-free
- Plant Based (Biobased)
- Contains essential oil that cleans as it lubricates
- No adverse effect (no calcium build-up) on your valves whether they are nickel-plated, monel-plated, or raw brass .
- Available in the widest range of viscosities on the market*
Which viscosity will work for you?
Newer instruments generally have tighter clearances and require lighter viscosities. However, lighter viscosities evaporate more quickly (especially in petroleum-based oil). Your choice for the greatest value should be the heaviest weight that allows the valves to move rapidly and consistently for the longest period of time. Speed and endurance.
We will be happy to advise you as to which of our weights is closest to what you are now using, as Novvi scientists have made a comparative analysis of the popular brands. If you have been using our BerpBioOil regular, the new formulation for our #3 oil is exactly the same viscosity. If you have been using the “lite” version of our original oil, its viscosity is 4.2, which is heavier than our #2 and #1 oil.
Tips to get the most from BerpBioOil
BerpBioOil works best if you clean your valves before the initial application, though it is not absolutely necessary.
What does “biobased” mean and what are the benefits?
Biobased products as defined by the U.S.Secretary of Agriculture are composed in whole or in significant part, of biological products or renewable materials. They are not petroleum-based, which helps alleviate the consumption of resources that harm the environment. We recommend that people who suffer from asthma and allergic reactions to pollution try these products as an alternative to what they are currently using.
* BerpBioOil offers three viscosities (cSt) with a wider range of weights than any other lubricant on the market to ensure that you will find the right match for your needs:
No.1 light 2.2 cSt
No.2 medium 3.7 cSt
No.3 heavy 5.6 cSt

Berpbiooil
I'm using the heaviest oil on my 16 year old Kanstul 1530 cornet; the oil is noticeably heavier compared to other oils I've used, e.g. UltraPure, and is similar to Alisyn valve oil. It appears to work with these older valves. No objectionable odor from Bio oil.

A leap of faith that paid off!
My Bb is getting pretty old, and I had heard about testing a horns compression. I did not like my results, so I sought ideas for a quick fix. I had read about using a thicker oil, so I searched for a quality oil with good reviews. This oil is great! It smells great, is affordable to keep on hand, and works wonders!

Valve oil
Berp Bio oil for trumpets, one of the best I have ever used and I have tried a lot of oils. No smell or discoloration but leaves the valves buttery smooth. I have 6 different horns I use it on. I have used the #2 & #3 oil, but have not tried the #1 yet.

Love #3 on my vintage horns!
My Conn 22b now has like-new compression! Great oil!

Have a vintage horn and the heavy Berp rocks!
