Hydraulic Fluids


Recommended Fluids

The fluids listed here work well over a wide temperature range at start-up, allow moisture to settle out, and resist biological growth likely in cool-operating hydraulic circuits. These fluids are recommended by Stanley Hydraulic Tools for use in our tools. Other fluids that meet or exceed the specifications of these fluids may also be used. Biodegradable fluids listed are compatible with all tool seals and hoses.
