Hydro Drive B-245 is a vegetable oil based hydraulic fluid formulated to meet the demand for biodegradable hydraulic oils. Hydro-Drive B-245 offers excellent performance in a wide array of hydraulic components and can be used as a replacement for conventional petroleum hydraulic oil. It exhibits good thermal and oxidative properties when compared to other vegetable derived products. Formulated from vegetable oil and containing a biodegradable additive package, Hydro-Drive B-245 is designed to minimize environmental impact and have low environmental persistence. Its high viscosity index (VI) allows outdoor operations in winter and summer without the need for fluid changes or equipment modifications.
