Manufacturer's description

Advanced biodegradable, HEES-type synthetic hydraulic fluid. Readily biodegradable with low ecotoxicity, particularly suitable for use in environmentally sensitive areas where eco-label compliance is required, including US waters. The fully synthetic esters, blended with ashless additives, give this fluid an excellent blend of lubrication performance and environmental acceptability.
