ALH EF-46 Ester Based Hydraulic Oil 

ALH EF-46 biodegradable hydraulic oil is a full synthetic ester base stock that is compatible with mineral and vegetable oil based fluids. It has a non-toxic nature and biodegradability that makes it a natural choice for use where leakage or spillage could pollute environmentally sensitive areas. It is recommended for circulation systems operating under mild to moderate service conditions, airline oilers, air-over-hydraulic fluid systems, circulation systems, hydraulic systems and industrial hydraulic systems.

Benefits

  • Environmentally friendly synthetic hydraulic oil.
  • Longer service life than traditional mineral and vegetable oil based fluids.
  • Compatible with mineral and vegetable oil based oils.
  • High viscosity index for excellent performance across a wide temperature range.
  • Contains specific ashless additives to improve general properties.
  • Provides longer equipment life.
  • Low pour point.
  • High level of biodegradability and non-toxicity.
  • High oxidation stability for longer oil life, extended filter life, reduced deposits and sludge formation.
  • Provides high level system lubrication at high and low temperatures.
  • Reduces corrosion for exceptional equipment protection.
  • Outstanding load-carrying and anti-wear properties.
  • Provides outstanding performance in systems operating in moderate to severe conditions.
