Applications
  • Light-duty hydraulic systems in industrial, automotive, and mobile equipment.
  • Precision hydraulic machinery and control systems where low-viscosity oils are specified.
  • Circulating and bearing lubrication systems.
  • Hydraulic systems requiring ISO VG 10 fluids with anti-wear (AW) properties.
Features & Benefits
  • Excellent Anti-Wear Protection – Prolongs pump and component life in hydraulic systems.
  • High Oxidation Stability – Prevents sludge and deposit formation, extending oil life.
  • Corrosion & Rust Inhibition – Protects metal surfaces, reducing maintenance costs.
  • Good Water Separation – Ensures quick release of entrained water, avoiding emulsification.
  • Efficient Air Release – Reduces foaming and ensures consistent hydraulic performance.
  • Low Viscosity for Fast Response – Ideal for systems requiring light fluidity and quick operation.
Health & Safety:
  • Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact—use gloves when handling.
  • Wash exposed skin thoroughly after handling; avoid ingestion and eye contact.
  • Use with adequate ventilation; do not inhale oil mist.
  • Store in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas away from heat and open flames.
  • Dispose of used oil in accordance with local environmental regulations.
  • Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling, disposal, and emergency procedures.
