| SPECIAL LOW TEMPERATURE
HYDRAULIC OIL is an ISO grade 32 anti-wear hydraulic fluid designed
for systems operating in cold climates. It is formulated to have an extremely
low pour point of -400F. |

The Proper Viscosity
Viscosity is generally considered to
be the most important characteristic of a hydraulic oil. This product is
an ISO 32 or SAE 10 weight hydraulic oil. This is the most popular viscosity
for hydraulic oil. If a hydraulic oil does not have the right viscosity,
it cannot perform satisfactorily, no matter how superior it may be in other
respects. Viscosity has a bearing on leakage. If the oil is too light,
leakage becomes a problem. Viscosity also has a direct relationship to
adequate lubrication because, in any hydraulic system, there are many accurately
machined surfaces requiring positive lubrication. The only source of this
lubrication is the hydraulic oil.

A Wide Operating Temperature Range
If the machine must be started at low
temperatures or operated at low temperatures, SPECIAL
LOW TEMPERATURE HYDRAULIC OIL is definitely the product of choice.
It is designed for a maximum oil operating temperature of 1500F.,
but it has a wide operating range. The oil has a pour point of -400F.
If you attempt to operate machinery in cold climates or cold starting temperatures,
the wide operating range is necessary; otherwise, you will experience excessive
leakage, sluggish operation, lower over-all efficiency, and other possible
deficiencies. Cold temperatures can be incurred in indoor equipment or
hydraulic systems for vehicles operating outside.

Combats
Oxidation
The base oil used in SPECIAL
LOW TEMPERATURE HYDRAULIC OIL has been put through solvent extraction
and hydro-treating processes. These processes have improved the oil's resistance
to oxidation and its response to additives used by Texas Refinery Corp.
This oil has been processed to the point it doesn't contribute to sludge
and gum problems. Some competitive oils have been poorly refined and inexpensive
additives have been used. Obviously those oils can experience a high rate
of oxidation. Unfortunately oxidation particles clog small orifices, tend
to jam tightly fitted parts, and destroy the whole balance of the system.
Moreover, since products of oxidation are acidic, they are likely to attack
metal parts and destroy precisely machined surfaces.

Fights
Rust And Corrosion
SPECIAL LOW TEMPERATURE
HYDRAULIC OIL contains additives to protect against rust and corrosion.
The only way to be sure of the highest degree of rust prevention is to
use oils with additives that are known to increase protection against rusting.
Fortunately, Texas Refinery Corp. uses superior additives to prevent rust.
Additional additives prevent corrosion. When you inspect a corroded surface,
you see it is pitted. The working action of corroded parts is sloppy or
loose and the leakage they permit is often enough to put a machine completely
out of balance.

Helps
Prevent Wear And Downtime
Excessive wear may only cause a loss
in volumetric efficiency; however, all too often it results in a costly
shut-down for replacement and repair as
well. The anti-wear system contained
in SPECIAL LOW TEMPERATURE HYDRAULIC OIL is
second to none! A long chemical chain zinc anti-wear compound is used.
It is undoubtedly one of the best anti-wear additive systems on the market!

Has
A Low Pour Point
The pour point of SPECIAL
LOW TEMPERATURE HYDRAULIC OIL is important. The pour point is an
indication of the relative ability of the oil to flow at cold temperatures.
While pour points of ordinary hydraulic oils usually run well below the
freezing point of water, that is insufficient in many cases. The pour point
of this product is -400F.
The pour point is great importance when
the equipment must be started at low temperatures. For most equipment the
pour point should be at least 200F. below the lowest operating
temperature. If the pour point comes any closer to the operating temperature
it is likely the oil will not flow readily into the suction side of the
hydraulic pump. |
