Hydraulic Additives used in the following sectors:-

1. Construction
Heavy-duty construction equipment must be able to consistently perform in harsh outdoor
environments and within fluctuating temperature ranges. Varnish, contamination and changes to
lubricant viscosity will eventually impair the performance of critical components, increasing downtime
and maintenance costs

Requirements of hydraulic oil

1. Premium Hydraulic oil additive

Excellent oxidation life, helping to extend life of oil and prevent varnish formation

High level of thermal stability, which helps minimize the formation of varnish

Excellent demulsibility, so water separates quickly

Outstanding antiwear system to protect system components

High level of rust and corrosion protection, extending component life

Excellent filterability

Examples Lubrizol 6776A

2. Lubrizol Antiwear Hydraulic Additive

Excellent hydrolytic stability

Superior rust and corrosion protection

Minimal increases in air entrainment

Excellent wet and dry filterability per AFNOR NF E48-690 and NF E48-691

Outstanding thermal and oxidative stability

Excellent wear protection designed to promote longer pump life

Approved in many different base oils

Examples Lubrizol 5703

Finished fluid - removes blending complexity

Existing Eco-label approval

Low environmental impact

 Excellent wear protection

Superior hydrolytic stability

Excellent filterability

Example Lubrizol 5685

3. Viscosity modifiers

Shear stable, non-dispersant, having pour point depressing properties

4. Industrial system cleaner

Decreases part wear

Frees clogged oil from filters, strainers and valves

Controls temperatures

Decreases maintenance costs due to component cleaning

2. Steel Mills
In steel mills, equipments must withstand rigorous use and high temperatures. As a result, hydraulic oils
must be equally tough, able to prevent wear and corrosion.

Invert emulsion type, fire-resistance type hydraulic oil requirements is high.

Examples are Lubrizol 6776A and 5703.

Apart from this we have Lubrizol 5793

Key benefits of Lubrizol 5793

Excellent emulsion stability

Excellent rust protection

Fire resistant properties

Approved through FM

3. Food Processing
Hydraulic oils like NSF H1 AND KNF H2.
FORESTRY
Heavy-duty forestry equipment must be able to consistently perform in harsh outdoor environments
and within fluctuating temperature ranges. Varnish, contamination and changes to lubricant viscosity
will eventually impair the performance of critical components, increasing downtime and maintenance
costs. Heavy-duty forestry equipment must be able to consistently perform in harsh outdoor
environments and within fluctuating temperature ranges. Varnish, contamination and changes to
lubricant viscosity will eventually impair the performance of critical components, increasing downtime
and maintenance costs.

The requirements are same as that of Construction.

MINING
Equipment used in mining operations must be able to consistently perform in harsh environments
and within fluctuating temperature ranges. Contaminants and changes to lubricant viscosity will
eventually impair the performance of critical components in a hydraulic system, increasing downtime
and maintenance costs.
