Compatible with your fleet—normal fluid top-up for conversion and fully compatible with existing
Type IV and V fluids
Fuel savings—lowest-density phosphate-ester hydraulic fluid, offering weight reductions
Improved system reliability—higher temperature capability than Type IV fluids, providing thermal stability and erosion resistance
Longer wear—Its exceptional paint compatibility allows it to be less aggressive toward aircraft paints
Fire resistance—improved fire resistance over Type IV fluids in spray ignition tests
Improved system reliability—High-temperature capability offers thermal stability and erosion protection
in valves.
Proven erosion resistance—a breakthrough product, solving previous problems of valve erosion
Proven track record—longest service history among phosphate ester fluids
System reliability—contains the same breakthrough anti-erosion additive and acid scavenger found in Skydrol LD-4
“I was impressed with the speed and professionalism of the Eastman team in dealing with our particular situation. Including the sample testing in the Skydrol product offering is nice, but in this case, the turnaround time was what really mattered. They realized we had an urgent request and handled it accordingly.
