It’s no industry secret: One of the best ways to run your hydraulic systems smoothly is to use the right hydraulic fluid. Lubrication Engineers offers a full line of multifunctional hydraulic oils, including several 100-percent synthetic formulations, all of which outperform conventional hydraulic fluids. They provide superior rust prevention, water separation ability, high film strength, and excellent handling under extreme pressure. They ensure a smooth transition of power and protect metal surfaces from corrosion.
Hydraulic systems that operate high-speed, high-pressure hydraulic pumps are common in today’s world. LE’s hydraulic oils are available in a wide range of ISO and SAE grades to meet these and many other critical machinery challenges. Some applications require hydraulic fluids with R & O properties that conform to the rigorous standards of the equipment’s original manufacturers. Other hydraulic applications – such as bucket trucks that provide electrical service for urban electric grids – require lubricants with low-temperature properties and high dielectric strength for protective insulation.LE’s hydraulic oils offer an array of impressive characteristics to meet these varying standards.
Some of these oils feature high resistance to consistently elevated, turbine-grade temperatures. Others (such as those used for food processing and packaging) need to meet NSF H1 requirements for incidental food contact or meet the USDA H2 criteria for nonfood contact areas of food processing and packaging plants. Still, other hydraulic fluids must provide heavy-duty performance in an environmentally friendly formula – in applications such as flood control structures, offshore installations, locks on rivers, dredging equipment, and other environmentally sensitive applications. LE’s comprehensive line of hydraulic oils is designed to accommodate diverse lubricant needs.
