Mobil Aero HF Series MIL-PRF-5606-GL
Description
Mobil Aero HF Series Aviation Hydraulic Fluid MIL-PRF-5606 – GL Can
Mobil Aero HFA and HF are formulated for aircraft systems where use of hydrocarbon-based hydraulic fluids is required. They are low viscosity products, high VI (viscosity index) fluid with excellent low temperature properties, good anti-wear performance, and good chemical stability. Mobil Aero HFA and HF are composed of mineral base oil stock and contain shear-stable VI improvers.

Applications of Mobil Aero HF Series Aviation Hydraulic Fluid MIL-PRF-5606 – GL Can
|
Mobil Aero HFA is a premium quality fluid that meets the quality requirements of the U.S. Military specification MIL-H-5606A (now obsolete). It has a very high VI and is suitable for use at temperatures down to -54 ºC (-65 ºF). While this quality fluid is no longer used by the U.S. Military, it is still used in some older, small private, and commercial aircraft. It is also used in industrial and commercial equipment requiring good fluidity at very low temperatures, where Mobil Aero HFA provides long, trouble-free service over a wide range of operating conditions. |
