SOLAR Optima Series Hydraulic Oils AW46 API ISO

Description

Solar Hydraulic Oil ISO AW 46 is a high-quality anti-wear hydraulic fluid developed from refined mineral base stocks and a carefully selected additive system. It provides excellent wear protection, oxidation resistance, and thermal stability, ensuring efficient performance across a wide range of hydraulic systems. This grade is ideal for equipment requiring ISO VG 46 viscosity in moderate to high ambient conditions.

Available API

ISO

Applications

Hydraulic systems in industrial, construction, and mobile equipment.
Injection molding machines, elevators, forklifts, presses, and CNC systems.
Equipment where ISO VG 46 fluids are recommended by OEMs.
Suitable for systems operating in moderate to high ambient temperatures.

Features & Benefits

Excellent Anti-Wear Performance
Prolongs the life of pumps, motors, and valves by reducing metal-to-metal contact.
Thermal & Oxidation Stability
Minimizes sludge and deposit formation, extending oil life and reducing maintenance.
Outstanding Corrosion and Rust Protection
Keeps systems protected even in the presence of moisture or water ingress.
Quick Air Release & Anti-Foam Properties
Enhances responsiveness of hydraulic components and prevents cavitation.
Good Demulsibility
Rapid water separation ensures consistent performance and prevents emulsions.

Health & Safety:

Use proper PPE (gloves and eye protection) when handling the product.
Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. Wash skin with soap and water after contact.
Do not ingest. In case of ingestion, seek immediate medical attention.
Avoid breathing oil mist—use in well-ventilated areas.
Store in a cool, dry, and shaded place away from direct sunlight or ignition sources.
Keep out of reach of children and animals.
Dispose of used oil and packaging in accordance with local environmental regulations.
Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full safety, handling, and spill-response details.
