Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services
  • ISO VG 68 indicates a mid-range viscosity that provides stable fluid flow under moderate to heavy load conditions - it is thicker than a VG 46 and better suited for systems that operate under higher pressures or in warmer ambient environments. Always check your equipment manufacturer's hydraulic fluid specification to confirm VG 68 is the recommended grade before filling.

  • TRUEGARD SYN 68 is engineered for both industrial hydraulic systems (such as those found in manufacturing plants) and mobile equipment (such as construction machinery), making it a versatile choice across demanding work environments where equipment protection and long service life are priorities.

  • The synthetic base oil in TRUEGARD SYN 68 supports enhanced thermal stability and oxidation resistance compared to conventional mineral oils, meaning the fluid is better equipped to maintain consistent performance in high-temperature environments and resist sludge formation over time - both of which contribute to reduced maintenance costs.

  • Water contamination in a hydraulic system accelerates corrosion and can compromise pump and valve performance. TRUEGARD SYN 68 is formulated to separate water rapidly, which makes it easier to drain water from the reservoir and helps minimize corrosion risk within the system.

  • Cavitation occurs when air bubbles form and collapse within the hydraulic circuit, causing noise, pressure loss, and damage to pumps and valves. TRUEGARD SYN 68's excellent air release characteristics allow entrained air to escape quickly from the fluid, reducing the conditions that lead to cavitation and supporting smoother, more reliable system operation.

  • This listing is for a 55-gallon drum format, which is intended for higher-volume industrial or fleet applications. When storing, keep the drum in a cool, dry location away from moisture and contaminants, as water ingress is a known risk factor for hydraulic fluid degradation - consistent with the product's emphasis on water separation and oxidation resistance.
