Applications
  • Heavy-duty hydraulic systems operating under severe pressure and temperature conditions.
  • Industrial applications including steel manufacturing, marine deck machinery, and press systems.
  • Hydraulic systems using gear-type and vane-type pumps in heavy equipment and fixed installations.
  • Applications requiring ISO VG 220 viscosity for slow-speed, high-load machine elements.
Key Features & Benefits:
  • Exceptional Anti-Wear Protection
    Protects hydraulic pumps, motors, and moving parts from wear and tear, extending equipment life even under severe operating conditions.
  • Superior Oxidation & Thermal Stability
    Resists degradation at elevated temperatures, minimizing sludge and deposit formation and ensuring longer oil life.
  • Excellent Rust & Corrosion Inhibition
    Provides durable protection against rust and corrosion, even when systems are exposed to moisture or water contamination.
  • Outstanding Air Release & Anti-Foaming Properties
    Prevents air entrapment and foam, ensuring precise and smooth hydraulic performance.
  • Strong Demulsibility
    Rapid water separation enhances reliability and efficiency, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
Health & Safety:

Avoid prolonged skin contact. Use gloves during handling. In case of contact with skin or eyes, wash immediately with clean water. Dispose of used oil responsibly and consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for further information.
