Selecting hydraulic fluid with the correct viscosity is the single most important factor for optimum performance.

Why is so much spoken about selecting hydraulic fluid with the correct viscosity? Well there are many properties that additives fortify for a specific application; but no one specification is as important as choosing the right hydraulic fluid viscosity that’s suitable over the entire operating temperature range.

Not selecting hydraulic fluid with the correct viscosity has these implications:

Fluid viscosity is one of the
