TRUEGARD HVI HYDRAULIC 68 is a premium hydraulic fluid engineered for reliable performance in demanding applications. With an ISO VG 68 viscosity grade, this product is specifically formulated for equipment requiring consistent hydraulic response and protection in environments with varying temperature ranges.

Key Features

·      High Viscosity Index (HVI): TRUEGARD HVI HYDRAULIC 68 is distinguished by its high viscosity index, allowing it to maintain optimal flow and lubricating properties across extreme temperature fluctuations. This ensures superior performance compared to standard hydraulic oils, reducing the risk of viscosity breakdown and component wear.

·      Wide Temperature Range: The fluid’s advanced formulation allows for stable operation in both low and high temperature conditions, making it ideal for outdoor and mobile equipment exposed to seasonal or environmental changes.

·      Anti-Wear Protection: Enhanced with specialized anti-wear additives, TRUEGARD HVI HYDRAULIC 68 provides robust protection for hydraulic system components, extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs.

·      Compatibility: Suitable for use in a variety of hydraulic systems, including those found in construction, agriculture, manufacturing, and industrial machinery.

Applications

This hydraulic fluid is recommended for use in hydraulic systems where a high viscosity index and ISO VG 68 grade are specified, especially in equipment operating under fluctuating or extreme temperature conditions. Typical applications include excavators, loaders, forklifts, and other machinery requiring reliable hydraulic performance and component protection.

Benefits

·      Consistent hydraulic system operation in diverse climates

·      Reduced wear and extended lifespan of critical components

·      Minimized maintenance and downtime

·      Improved efficiency and reliability of equipment

TRUEGARD HVI HYDRAULIC 68 is the optimal choice for professionals seeking a high-performance, versatile, and protective hydraulic fluid for their equipment.

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

  • ISO VG 68 refers to a standardized viscosity grade indicating the fluid's kinematic viscosity is centered around 68 cSt at 40°C. Equipment manufacturers specify a required viscosity grade in the operator's manual or service documentation - if your machine calls for an ISO VG 68 hydraulic fluid, this product meets that specification. Using the wrong viscosity grade can lead to poor system response, leaks, or accelerated wear.

  • Viscosity Index (VI) measures how much a fluid's viscosity changes with temperature - a higher VI means less change. An HVI fluid like this one maintains more consistent flow and lubrication across a wide temperature range compared to standard hydraulic oils, which reduces the risk of viscosity breakdown in heat and sluggish flow in cold, protecting components in both conditions.

  • Yes - the advanced wide-temperature formulation makes TRUEGARD HVI HYDRAULIC 68 well suited for outdoor and mobile equipment such as excavators, loaders, and forklifts that are exposed to seasonal or environmental temperature swings. The high viscosity index ensures stable hydraulic performance whether conditions are cold or hot.

  • This fluid is designed for hydraulic systems across construction, agriculture, manufacturing, and industrial applications. Typical equipment includes excavators, loaders, forklifts, and other machinery where an ISO VG 68 grade and high viscosity index are specified by the manufacturer.

  • The product data does not specify compatibility with other hydraulic fluid brands or formulations. As a best practice, it is recommended to fully drain and flush an existing system before switching to a new hydraulic fluid to avoid additive incompatibility, contamination, or performance issues - consult your equipment manufacturer's guidelines before mixing fluids.

  • The specialized anti-wear additives in this fluid form a protective film on metal surfaces within the hydraulic system, reducing friction and surface fatigue on pumps, valves, and cylinders. This translates to extended component lifespan, lower maintenance frequency, and reduced downtime - especially valuable in high-cycle or heavy-duty applications.
