Description:

Petro-Canada’s HYDREX EXTREME is a premium quality, high performance hydraulic fluid designed for extremely wide temperature protection for high and severe low temperatures.

HYDREX EXTREME hydraulic fluid starts with the HT purity process to produce 99.9% pure base oils. These crystal-clear fluids are free of impurities that can hinder the performance of competitive conventional oils. HYDREX EXTREME is specially formulated to deliver enhanced oxidation and shear stability as well as antiwear protection to mobile equipment and industrial machinery. Drawing from a few decades of formulating experience, PetroCanada utilizes specially selected additives to provide a hydraulic fluid that lasts longer and has an extremely wide operating temperature range.

Features & Benefits:

• Wide temperature protection

• Outstanding low temperature flow characteristics allow start-up as low as -48°C (-54°F) to operating temperatures as high as +76°C (169°F) for mobile equipment and +68°C (+154°F) for industrial machinery

• May eliminate seasonal change-outs to help reduce inventory costs, downtime and chance of misapplication

• Exceptional oxidation stability

• Longer oil life helps extend time between oil changes reducing downtime and costs

• Helps reduce sludge build-up that can lead to wear and shorter filter life

• Helps reduce harmful varnish deposits to ensure smooth reliable operation of hydraulic valves and actuators 

• Excellent anti-wear characteristics

• Helps extend equipment life for reduced maintenance and downtime

• Contains no heavy metals such as barium or zinc to help minimize environmental effects including waste water contamination

• Inherently biodegradable

• Greater than 40% biodegradable within a 28 day period

• Exceptional wet and dry filterability

• Excellent rust and corrosion protection

• Excellent water separability and hydrolytic stability

Applications:

Petro-Canada’s HYDREX EXTREME hydraulic fluid is recommended for vane, gear and axial piston hydraulic pumps over an extremely wide range of operating temperatures. It is suitable for applications where systems must be started up at very low temperatures but have higher temperatures during operation. It is also suitable for use in bucket trucks operating around power lines or in bucket truck hydraulic systems requiring extreme low temperature pumpability.
