HYDRAULIC+ – Preventive Maintenance
HYDRAULIC+ is a teflon based wear reducing additive. When added to the existing lube oil it reduces the friction between mating surfaces especially where there is metal to metal contact e.g. pumps. If you have a machine that is not leaking yet, we highly recommend adding our HYDRAULIC+ product.
The reason to add HYDRAULIC+additive, is to prevent the TAN (total acid number) from going up. If the oil is becoming too contaminated with especially iron particles created from friction inside the hydraulic pumps, and outside particles from the workshop/atmosphere, that has entered the system through moving parts or holes, then the acid number will increase rapidly. This of course means, that the oil inside the hydraulic system will start to “eat”/sear the seals and gaskets which eventually results in an oil leak.
The smaller teflon particles in HYDRAULIC+ impregnate the metal surfaces which leads to reduced friction and thus wear & noise.
Only 1% by system volume is needed to prevent leaks from occurring/developing.
