Synthetic Anti-Wear Hydraulic Oils
ISO 15, 22, 32, 46, 68
Protects hard-working hydraulic systems
from the stress of high-pressure, high-load and heavy-duty
operations. Remains fluid in cold temperatures for immediate
cold-weather flow. Special anti-wear additives and rust
inhibitors provide optimum protection to expensive equipment.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic
Oils are shear stable, long-life lubricants based on high
quality synthetic oil technology. These oils are formulated
with a premium additive system that inhibits oxidation (preventing
acid and viscosity increase), inhibits rust, and inhibits
foam (preventing spongy hydraulics). AMSOIL AW Oils also
contain a very effective zinc-based antiwear/antioxidant
additive which prevents wear in high speed, high pressure
vane and gear pumps while meeting the lubrication requirements
of axial piston pumps having bronze-on-steel metallurgy.
AMSOIL AW Oils are designed for long life and typically
reduce maintenance costs by extending drain intervals and
reducing labor associated with repairs, down time, and change
outs.
Amsoil Synthetic Base Oil Technology
AMSOIL's synthetic base oils are thermally
and oxidatively stable, preventing carbon or varnish deposits.
The very high viscosity indicies, low pour points, and lack
of parrafins (wax) make these good all season lubricants
well suited for temperature extremes. At high temperatures
and pressures, these oils will provide a good lubricating
film and protect components against wear. During cold temperature
operation, equipment will start easier and the need for
preheating with sump heaters is reduced. The AW Series base
oils are hydrolytically stable and they readily separate
from water. This prevents unwanted oil/water emulsions that
inhibit an oil's ability to lubricate, allows for longer
lubricant life, and means water can easily be drained from
the sump.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
The correct viscosity grades of AMSOIL
Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are recommended
for high and low pressure gear, vane and piston stationary
and mobile hydraulic systems. They meet the performance
requirements of all major hydraulic manufacturers and are
excellent for general purpose use where extended drain intervals
are desired and in severe duty operations where temperature
extremes are encountered. Even though recommended for all-season
use, AWF and AWG are the preferred choice for temperatures
less than -20° F because these oils are light-bodied and
have very good cold temperature properties.
Some applications include machine tools
and presses, mobile construction equipment, farming equipment,
logging trucks, boom trucks and plastic injection molding
machines. The appropriate viscosity grade of AW Oils are
also suitable for use in pneumatic tools, speed reducers,
spindles and R & O gear applications
The ability of the AW Series to extend
drain intervals is subject to operating conditions and maintenance
practices. Monitoring by oil analysis is recommended.
AMSOIL AW Series Oils are compatible with
hydraulic system seals, petroleum hydraulic oils, and most
synthetic hydraulic oils*. For optimum performance it is
recommended that the system be thoroughly drained and if
warranted, cleaned prior to installation.
* Not compatible with phosphate ester
or silicone fluids.
