Product Data
Hydro Safe ISO VG 32
Non-Toxic - Biodegradable - Environmentally Friendly
Antiwear - Hydraulic Oil
Hydro Safe ISO VG 32 is a vegetable based hydraulic fluid formulated to meet
the demand for biodegradable hydraulic oils. It is designed to minimize
environmental impact and have low environmental persistance. Hydro Safe ISO
VG 32 offers excellent antiwear performance in a wide array of hydraulic
components, and can be used as a superior replacement for conventional
petroleum oil. It exhibits good thermal and oxidative properties when compared
to other vegetable-derived products. Formulated from canola oil, and containing
biodegradable, non-toxic chemical additives. Its high vicosity index (VI) allows
outdoor operations in winter and summer without the need for fluid changes or
equipment modifications.
Viscosity Index ASTM D-567, ASA Z11.45 is an empirical number indicating the
rate of change in viscosity of an oil within a given temperature range. A low
viscosity index signifies a relatively large change in viscosity with temperature
change, while a high viscosity index shows a relatively small change in vicosity
with temperature change. Viscosity Index cannot be used to measure any other
quality of an oil.
The fluid is totally biodegradable, and exceeds the government criteria of being
"readily biodegradable." Readily biodegradable is defined as an attribute of
products that have a natural ability to biodgrade quickly and completely. Once
the fluid is leaked into the ground, it has the ability of substance to be digested or
consumed by naturally occurring microorganisms present in water, air, and soil
systems. Complete biodegradability is the conversion of a substance to carbon
dioxide and water.

ASTM D2691 Hydrolytic Stability Test - This test measures the fluid's ability to
resist breakdown in the presence of heat and water. The amount of base needed to
neutralize water layer in the test at its conclusion was 7.0 mg. This is an
exceptionally low value and indicates that the product is very stable even under
the most adverse conditions and will not be aggressive toward metal and
components in the hydraulic system.
Storage/Handling/Disposability
