Synthetic
AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are shear
stable, long-life lubricants based on high quality synthetic
oil technology. These oils are formulated with a premium
additive system that inhibits oxidation (preventing acid and
viscosity increase), inhibits rust, and inhibits foam
(preventing spongy hydraulics). AMSOIL AW Oils also contain a
very effective zinc-based antiwear/antioxidant additive which
prevents wear in high speed, high pressure vane and gear pumps
while meeting the lubrication requirements of axial piston
pumps having bronze-on-steel metallurgy. AMSOIL AW Oils are
designed for long life and typically reduce maintenance costs
by extending drain intervals and reducing labor associated with
repairs, down time, and change outs.
AMSOIL Synthetic Base Oil Technology
AMSOIL's synthetic base oils are thermally and oxidatively
stable, preventing carbon or varnish deposits. The very high
viscosity indices, low pour points, and lack of paraffins (wax)
make these good all season lubricants well suited for
temperature extremes. At high temperatures and pressures, these
oils will provide a good lubricating film and protect
components against wear. During cold temperature operation,
equipment will start easier and the need for preheating with
sump heaters is reduced. The AW Series base oils are
hydrolytically stable and they readily separate from water.
This prevents unwanted oil/water emulsions that inhibit an
oil's ability to lubricate, allows for longer lubricant life,
and means water can easily be drained from the sump.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
The correct viscosity grades
of AMSOIL Synthetic AW Series Antiwear Hydraulic Oils are
recommended for high and low pressure gear, vane and piston
stationary and mobile hydraulic systems. They meet the
performance requirements of all major hydraulic manufacturers
and are excellent for general purpose use where extended drain
intervals are desired and in severe duty operations where
temperature extremes are encountered. Even though recommended
for all-season use, AWF and AWG are the preferred choice for
temperatures less than -20° F because these oils are
light-bodied and have very good cold temperature properties.
Some applications include machine tools and presses, mobile
construction equipment, farming equipment, logging trucks, boom
trucks and plastic injection molding machines. The appropriate
viscosity grade of AW Oils are also suitable for use in
pneumatic tools, speed reducers, spindles and R & O gear
applications
The ability of the AW Series to extend drain intervals is
subject to operating conditions and maintenance practices.
Monitoring by oil analysis is recommended.
AMSOIL AW Series Oils are compatible with hydraulic system
seals, petroleum hydraulic oils, and most synthetic hydraulic
oils 1. For optimum performance it is recommended that the
system be thoroughly drained and if warranted, cleaned prior to
installation.
1. Not compatible with phosphate ester or silicone fluids.
