High temperature oil for oil bath

Hi,

I would like some information about an oil for a heated oil bath. I would
like to heat an aqueous solution in a sealed teflon container, and would be
using the oil as a heat transfer medium (in another glass beaker around the
teflon container). Does anyone here have any experience using oil baths as
opposed to a water bath. The oil would need to withstand a temperature of
125 C maximum, i.e not smoke or boil at this temperature.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
