Contenu
AW 46 hydraulic oil is high-quality oil suitable for many industrial and mobile uses, including boats, elevators, pneumatic tools, construction equipment and winches. It has some advanced engineered properties that protect against rust and corrosion. The hydraulic oil is also resistant to foaming, which causes poor, slow hydraulic system response.
Specific Gravity and Density
Specific gravity is the ratio of a liquids density to the density of water. AW 46 hydraulic oils specific gravity is 0.868. Its density is 7.23 lbs per gallon.
Flash Point
A liquids flash point is the lowest temperature it begins to vaporize and mix with air to create an ignitable mixture. AW 46s flash point is 227 degrees Celsius, which is 441 degrees Fahrenheit.
Viscosity
The viscosity of a liquid is a measure of how thick it is and it depends on temperature. Manufacturers generally measure viscosity in centistokes (cSt). At 40 degrees Celsius, AW 46s viscosity is 46 cSt, giving it its name. At 100 degrees Celsius, its viscosity thins out to 6.8 cSt.
Further Properties
AW 46 hydraulic oils viscosity number is exactly 100. Its acid number is 0.38. Last, it is 0.043 percent zinc by weight.
