Petro-Canada Lubricants teamed up with the Fluid Power Institute at Milwaukee School of Engineering to investigate how hydraulic fluids affect machine productivity and energy consumption.
Outstanding efficiency earns newly reformulated HYDREX XV hydraulic fluid an award for Best New Product or Service of the Year – Industrial Products and Services
Petro-Canada Lubricants, a Suncor business, has reformulated its HYDREX line of hydraulic fluids to deliver leading wear protection, greater energy efficiencies, extended oil life and strong performance in wide temperature ranges.
HYDREX delivers outstanding lubrication and extended drain capabilities, reducing equipment downtime and maintenance costs, and increasing productivity. Compared to other leading global hydraulic brands, HYDREX lasts up to 3X longer and provides up to 2X better wear protection.
Oil Sands mining presents unique challenges when it comes to lubrication. With intense working conditions, severe temperatures, unpredictable weather and unfavourable terrain, there is a constant need for the industry to go beyond today’s standards to protect the equipment that keeps operations alive.
In today’s competitive business environment, even the smallest details can provide a company with a competitive edge. Choosing what type of fluid to use in your hydraulic equipment can make the difference between productivity and inefficiency, between profit and loss.
