Reply to "Which Hydraulic Oil ?"

rogerdaviesMember

Too complicated for simple advice, but lets try.
SAE 10W engine API >SF oil is roughly the right viscosity for hydraulics and by definition has good antiwear/antioxidant properties and is a bit expensive. (also CAT TO4 and Allison C4 10W and more expensive)
ATF Mercon, Dexron, TASA, Ford M2C33G all suitable for hydraulics again more expensive.
Tractor transmission oils UTTOs and UTF(a bit viscous) all OK in hydraulics(expensive)
Inexpensive solution Mobil DTE Anti wear, Shell Tellus or eqiv.(where appropriate)with wider viscosity choice for ambient conditions.
For fine filtration systems always chose bespoke hydralic oils.
