Hydraulic Oil HLP 68

Back to Products

HLP 68 is the heavier anti-wear grade, chosen for heavily loaded presses, slow-moving cylinders and systems that run hot through the Indian summer.

Where it is used

• Heavy-duty hydraulic presses
• Slow-moving, high-load hydraulic systems
• Older pumps with some internal wear
• Hydraulics in hot sheds where oil often runs above 60 °C

Key properties

• Anti-wear protection under high loads
• Superior foam resistance
• Good water separation
• Oxidation stability and rust protection

Choosing and using it

• Use HLP 68 only where the pump maker allows it: at cold start a thicker oil can starve the pump.
• Do not top up a VG 46 system with VG 68; drain, flush and relabel the tank if you change grade.
• Rising oil temperature is often a cooler or relief-valve problem; see hydraulic oil overheating.
