Hydrex AW 46 for Industrial Hydraulic Systems

High-Performance Hydrex AW 46 Hydraulic Oil with Superior Wear Protection

Petro-Canada Hydrex AW 46 is designed to deliver reliable, long-lasting protection for industrial and mobile equipment. Formulated with Petro-Canada’s ultra-pure HT base oils and a carefully balanced additive package. Hydrex AW 46 helps extend component life, reduce downtime, and boost overall system efficiency.

From manufacturing plants to heavy-duty construction equipment, this ISO VG 46 hydraulic fluid offers excellent resistance to oxidation. It also offers resistance to thermal breakdown and sludge formation. It performs consistently in a wide temperature range, delivering optimal flow characteristics at low temperatures while maintaining strong film strength under heat and pressure.

One of the key advantages is its superior wear protection. It meets or exceeds major OEM requirements and is designed to protect critical components like pumps, valves, and actuators from scuffing, scoring, and premature failure. Additionally, it offers excellent demulsibility, allowing quick separation of water to prevent rust, corrosion, and foaming.

This hydraulic oil also stands out for its extended drain intervals, minimizing maintenance costs and waste. It helps maintain system cleanliness and efficiency, even in demanding environments such as sawmills, mining operations, material handling, and injection molding systems.

Hydrex AW 46 is recommended for use in systems requiring DIN 51524 Part 2 (HLP type) fluids and those operating under severe mechanical stress. Its strong anti-wear performance combined with thermal stability and low varnish potential makes it the go-to solution for businesses seeking both performance and reliability.

Key Benefits:

• Premium fluid with extended service life

• Excellent anti-wear protection for pumps and valves

• Resists oxidation, varnish, and sludge buildup

• Fast water separation and excellent rust protection

• Suitable for industrial and mobile hydraulic systems

If your operation demands a tough, reliable hydraulic fluid that reduces costs and increases uptime, this product is the smart choice.

• HYDREX AW hydraulic fluids are primarily recommended for heavy duty hydraulic systems that operate in industrial plants and outdoors in mobile equipment. HYDREX AW fluids may be used in systems equipped with fine filters down to 3 microns without loss of additives or causing filter plugging. Because of their wide applicability, long life, rust and foaming inhibiting features, HYDREX AW fluids may also be used to lubricate anti-friction bearings and gears found in circulation, splash, bath and ring-oiled systems.
