Hydraulic Fluid, Specific gravity: 1.08

Shell water-glycol S2 C was developed and designed specifically to operate at system pressures of 2000 to 4000 psi. It contains sufficient water to prevent the propagation of fire in the event of a hydraulic line rupture near an ignition source, which makes it suitable for applications such as die casting equipment, welding machines, molten metal handling devices, continuous casters, hot strip mills, slag granulators and hot metal presses. Recognized by FM global as a less-flammable industrial fluid, Shell water-glycol S2 C reduces the fire hazards relating to personal safety in storage, handling and use, which could help to lower insurance premiums. A high level of antiwear protection is built into Shell water-glycol S2 C. It is designed to be resistant to mechanical shear, so it has a stable viscosity that helps to protect components against wear. In addition, it provides corrosion protection to a wide variety of metals, including aluminum, copper, brass, cast iron, steel and others commonly used in hydraulic circuits. Shell water-glycol S2 C 32 can be used in systems that contain a wide variety of seal, gasket and hose materials. Elastomers such as natural rubber, buna-N, buna-S and neoprene are compatible with the fluid. Other materials such as viton and teflon are also compatible.Hydraulic Fluid, Specific gravity: 1.08, Standards: FM Global, ASTM D1298, Viscosity: 46 sq mm/s at 40 °C
