TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

QUINTOLUBRIC® 855
FIRE RESISTANT HFD-U HYDRAULIC FLUID

QUINTOLUBRIC® 855 is based on high-quality, natural

esters and carefully selected additives to achieve excel-
lent hydraulic fluid performance. QUINTOLUBRIC® 855
Benefits
does not contain water, mineral oil or phosphate ester.
• Excellent lubrication properties
Applications • Non-toxic and non-irritating
• Contains no hazardous ingredients
• Product is readily biodegradable
QUINTOLUBRIC® 855 was designed to replace anti-wear,
mineral oil-based hydraulic fluids as well as vegetable-
based fluids and polyol esters. QUINTOLUBRIC® 855 can
be used in or near fire hazards and in environmentally
sensitive hydraulic applications without compromising Properties
the overall hydraulic system operation.

QUINTOLUBRIC® 855 is used as received and pre-filtration
is not necessary because the fluid is filtered during Viscosity Index (ASTM D2270) 220
production. Its higher viscosity index compared with Density at 15ºC (ASTM D1298) 0.92 g/cm³
mineral oil makes it ideal for use at a wider temperature
range. QUINTOLUBRIC® 855 also has good cold start-up Acid Number (ASTM D974) 0.95 mg KOH/g
