TRUEGARD FOOD GRADE HYDRAULIC 46 OIL

The "46" refers to the ISO VG 46 viscosity grade, meaning the oil has a kinematic viscosity of approximately 46 centistokes at 40°C. This is a mid-range viscosity commonly specified for industrial hydraulic systems operating at moderate temperatures and pressures. Always check your equipment manufacturer's specification to confirm ISO VG 46 is the required grade before use.

Food grade lubricants are formulated to be safe in the event of incidental contact with food or food contact surfaces, which is critical in food and beverage processing environments. This oil is designed for hydraulic systems, hydrostatic gears, bearings, light duty gearboxes, and circulating oil systems where equipment operates in or around food production.

This oil is compatible with the elastomers, gaskets, seals, and paints normally used in food machinery lubrication systems, reducing the risk of seal swelling, degradation, or paint damage when used as intended.

Yes. Beyond hydraulic systems, this oil is suited for hydrostatic gears, plain and anti-friction bearings, light duty gearboxes, and circulating oil systems, making it a versatile general-purpose food grade lubricant across multiple equipment types in a single facility.

Store this oil separately from other lubricants, chemical substances, and foodstuffs, between 32°F and 100°F, and away from direct sunlight or other heat sources. Unopened, it is recommended for use within 5 years of the manufacture date; once opened, use it within 2 years of opening or within 5 years of manufacture, whichever comes first.

Compatibility with other hydraulic oils or lubricants is not specified for this product. Food grade lubricants should be stored and handled separately from other lubricants and chemical substances, and it is best practice to fully drain and flush a system before switching lubricants to avoid contamination or performance issues.
