Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • The "68" refers to the ISO viscosity grade, indicating the oil's thickness at operating temperature - a grade 68 fluid is suited for moderate to heavy load hydraulic systems that require stable fluid flow under varying conditions. Check your equipment manufacturer's specifications for the recommended ISO VG grade; systems calling for ISO VG 68 or AW 68 hydraulic fluid are the intended match for this product.

  • TRUEGARD SYN 68 is designed for use in a wide range of hydraulic systems found in manufacturing plants, construction machinery, and other mobile equipment. Its robust formulation makes it suitable for both industrial and mobile applications where demanding operating conditions require reliable component protection and long service intervals.

  • The synthetic base of TRUEGARD SYN 68 contributes to its outstanding thermal stability and oxidation resistance, allowing it to maintain consistent performance in high-temperature environments and resist oil degradation and sludge formation longer than conventional mineral-based oils - both of which help reduce maintenance frequency and protect system cleanliness.

  • Water contamination in a hydraulic system can cause corrosion of metal components and reduce the oil's lubricating effectiveness. TRUEGARD SYN 68 is designed to separate water rapidly, making it easier to remove water contamination and minimizing the risk of corrosion and system damage.

  • Cavitation occurs when air bubbles form in the hydraulic fluid and collapse under pressure, causing shock damage to pumps and other components. TRUEGARD SYN 68's excellent air release characteristics allow entrained air to escape quickly from the fluid, preventing bubble formation and ensuring smoother, more reliable hydraulic operation.

  • When hydraulic oil oxidizes, it breaks down and forms sludge and varnish deposits that clog valves, restrict flow, and accelerate component wear. By resisting oxidation, TRUEGARD SYN 68 maintains system cleanliness and fluid integrity over time, which helps extend drain intervals, reduce unplanned downtime, and lower overall maintenance costs.
