Overview

Leading technologies in hydraulic oil additives

Hydraulic systems must provide tough, unyielding power in the harshest environments. At the heart of the system is the hydraulic fluid that prevents wear and corrosion. Today, hydraulic systems have become more compact, resulting in higher pressures, smaller lines, smaller reservoirs and more critical fluid controls. As a result, it is important to use a quality hydraulic fluid package that will ensure optimum performance.

At Lubrizol, we make all the components for our anti-wear hydraulic fluids, including pour point depressants and viscosity modifiers. This can reduce the number of suppliers for our customers, reduce the testing time it takes to bring a new product to market and, ultimately, reduce overall supply chain costs.

We can work with customers any way they choose. We primarily sell performance packages, which reduce the number of components customers have to inventory themselves. Our packages are designed to provide peak hydraulic system performance, with benefits that include:

• Resistant to varnish
• Better oxidation resistance
• Better anti-foam characteristics
• Improved air release properties
• Improved thermal stability
• Extended anti-rust performance
• Increased extreme pressure
• Excellent anti-wear performance
• Improved filtration

As a global company with manufacturing, sales and technical offices throughout the world, Lubrizol can assure customers dependable supply, on shorter lead times, with consistent product quality. Our knowledge of local cultures and languages and our understanding of global base stocks and chemistries reduce the risks of business missteps for our customers.
