See below for Amsoil's Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil

Protects hard-working hydraulic systems from the stress of high-pressure, high-load and heavy-duty operations. Remains fluid in cold temperatures for immediate cold-weather flow. Special anti-wear additives and rust inhibitors provide optimum protection to expensive equipment.

Product Description

AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are shear-stable, long-life lubricants based on high-quality synthetic oil technology. These oils are formulated with a premium additive system that inhibits oxidation to prevent acid formation and viscosity increase and inhibit rust and foam (providing smooth hydraulic operation). AW Oils contain a very effective zinc-based antiwear/antioxidant additive which controls wear in high-speed, high-pressure vane and gear pumps while meeting the lubrication requirements of axial piston pumps with bronze-on-steel metallurgy. AW Oils meet the requirements for Maximum Efficiency Hydraulic Fluid (mehf) and can lower costs and/or increase productivity in mobile equipment by 6 to 15%. Improved pump efficiency can increase hydraulic power, reduce fuel consumption and improve productivity. They are designed for long life and typically reduce maintenance costs by extending drain intervals and reducing labor costs, repairs and downtime.

AMSOIL Synthetic Base Oil Technology

AMSOIL synthetic base oils resist thermal and oxidative breakdown and work to prevent carbon and varnish deposits. The very high viscosity indices, low pour points and lack of paraffins (wax) make these good all-season lubricants well suited for temperature extremes. At high temperatures and pressures, AW Oils provide a good lubricating film and protect components against wear.

 Performance Features

• Extended oil drain intervals
• Antiwear protection for high-pressure systems
• Recommended for gear, vane and piston pumps
• Contain rust, oxidation and foam inhibitors
• Designed for extreme temperature operations
• Hydrolytically stable and readily separates from water
• Improves mobile equipment efficiency (mehf)

Application Recommendation

The correct viscosity grades of AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are recommended for high- and low-pressure gear, vane and piston stationary and mobile hydraulic systems. They meet the performance requirements of all major hydraulic manufacturers and are excellent for general purpose use where extended drain intervals are desired and in severe duty operations where temperature extremes are encountered. Because they are light-bodied and possess very good cold-temperature properties, AWF and AWG are the preferred choices for temperatures below -20°F.

Some applications include machine tools and presses, mobile construction equipment, farming equipment, logging trucks, boom trucks and plastic injection molding machines. The appropriate viscosity grades of AW Oils are also suitable for use in pneumatic tools and spindles.

AMSOIL AW Series Oils are compatible with hydraulic system seals, petroleum hydraulic oils and most synthetic hydraulic oils*. For optimum performance, it is recommended the system be thoroughly drained and, if warranted, cleaned prior to installation. Oil analysis is recommended to maximize oil drain intervals.

 

 * Not compatible with phosphate ester or silicone fluids

The Best Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil on the Market


Biodegradable ISO 32/46 Hydraulic Oil

Synthetic TBI ISO 32/46
Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil (TBI)

Product Description
AMSOIL TBI hydraulic oil is a premium lubricant designed to biodegrade to its natural state when subjected to sunlight, water and microbial activity. Because it is formulated with ashless additives that do not contain heavy metals, TBI has a very low toxicity level.

AMSOIL TBI incorporates very high-quality synthetic base oils that provide thermal stability, even though they are biodegradable. TBI also contains antiwear additives that have been thoroughly tested and qualified against stringent hydraulic oil standards including Denison HF-0, HF-1 and HF-2, Vickers M-2950-S and I-286-S and Cincinnati Milacron P-68 and P-70. TBI provides optimum protection for hydraulics, preventing pump wear and rusting of critical components. It also contains antioxidants that increase oil life and foam inhibitors that quickly release air from the oil.

Based on high-quality, synthetic oil chemistry that better withstands heat and lasts longer, TBI outperforms vegetable oil-type, biodegradable hydraulic oils, ensuring problem-free operation.

Application Recommendation
AMSOIL TBI is recommended for gear, vane and piston stationary and mobile hydraulic systems. TBI is a multi-viscosity, SAE 5W-20 oil and is recommended for use in place of either ISO-32 or ISO-46 hydraulic oils.

TBI is essentially compatible with typical hydraulic oils, and small amounts of contamination (lines, residue) are acceptable. However, it is recommended systems be drained prior to installing TBI. Excessive system contamination will minimize its biodegradability effectiveness.

TBI is especially well suited for applications where environmental contamination due to leaking or blown hydraulic lines presents an environmental hazard.

TBI has been tested and found compatible with Nitrile (Buna-N), Poly Acrylate, Fluorocarbon (Viton) and Silicone seals which are commonly found in hydraulic systems.

The ability of TBI to extend drain intervals and excel in performance is subject to operating conditions and maintenance practices. Monitoring by oil analysis is recommended.

Performance Features

  • 80% Biodegradable Within 21 days (CEC L-33-A-94)
  • Thermally Stable
  • Resists Oxidation
  • Anti-Rust and Anti-Foam
  • -69°F Pour Point For Cold Temperature Performance
  • Outperforms Vegetable Type Bio-Hydraulic Oils

Amsoil Product Warranty
AMSOIL Industrial Lubricants are formulated to exceed accepted industry specifications. AMSOIL warrants that the use of its lubricants will not cause mechanical damage to any mechanically sound equipment when AMSOIL products are used in full compliance with the company’s recommendations.
However, the purchaser is responsible for determining if these specifications are adequate and proper for the intended application. The AMSOIL warranty is limited to lubricant performance consistent with indicated specifications. No additional warranty, expressed or implied, can be made.
