The exciting new environmental hydraulic fluid that everyone is talking about! Power Flo is the solution for mobile equipment operators working in or near sensitive environments. It contains no mineral oil or toxic heavy metals commonly found in conventional hydraulic fluids.
Power Flo is biodegradable, non-toxic, water-soluble and fire resistant. It has a pour point of -63° C and a viscosity index near 200, making it much more usable than mineral oil over extreme operating temperature ranges. It has lower than mineral oil compressibility for responsive control and greater thermal conductivity to keep systems running cooler. Testimonies from customers confirm that conversion to Power Flo is easy and the benefits are real.
Installations include: waste trucks, compactors, suction trucks, shredders, forklifts, marine hydraulics, turf machinery, primary metals industries, aquatic weed harvesters and many more.
Power Flo will not leave a stain when spilled on pavement or concrete.
Power Flo is EcoLogo approved, North America's certfication for environmental products.
