- Advantages
- Excellent Anti-Wear Performance- Exceptional load-carrying capabilities and specially formulated (with no zinc or other metal additives) to provide effective corrosion protection and anti-wear performance in hydraulic systems. Rated as anti- wear (AW) fluids according to ASTM D7043 testing and FZG testing, which means the potential for greater operating reliability, less downtime, and lower maintenance costs.
- Clean, Long-Lasting Operation - When proper equipment maintenance procedures are followed, the Bio-Synxtreme HF series offer a long service life and operating reliability, lower maintenance costs, and reduced overall downtime.
- All Season Performance- High viscosity indices and low pour points, allowing year-round usage and eliminating seasonal changeovers.
- Biodegradability- Readily biodegradable according to OECD 301F
- Non-Sheening- Does not cause a sheen or discoloration on the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines that would violate local water quality standards.
- Aquatic Toxicity- "Practically Non-Toxic" to fish and other aquatic wildlife according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service hazard classification.
Applications & Uses

- Application Area
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Compatibility
- Other Hydraulic Fluids - Not compatible with hydrocarbon-based hydraulic fluids. As with any fluid conversion, recognized industry procedures including system cleanup and flushing should be followed.
- Paints PAG- based fluids show some solvency for common oil-based paints but minimal solvency for many epoxy-based paints.
- Elastomers- Suitable for use with many elastomeric materials used in seals and gaskets. Compatible_elastomers_are: Viton,_ Kalrez, Silicone, Polysulfide, EPR, Butyl Rubber, Buna N, Fluoraz, EPDM Natural Black Rubber NaturalRed Rubber and Aflas.
- Plastics- Compatibility should be assessed for any plastic Components (such as reservoir sight glasses) exposed to a hydraulic fluid.
