Non-Sheening–UCON™Trident™AW

hydraulic fluids are the only commercially available,

environmentally friendly fluids that pass the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 40 CFR 435

Static Sheen Test.

Water Solubility–UCON™Trident™AW

hydraulic fluids are heavier than water, dissolve completely

and leave no surface sheen, eliminating cleanup requirements.

Aquatic Toxicity

– According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,

UCON™Trident™AW  hydraulic

fluids meet requirements as “Relatively Harmless” or “Practically Non-Toxic” to fish and other

aquatic wildlife.

Biodegradable–UCON™Trident™AW32 fluids are “readily biodegradable” according to

OECD 301F.

Excellent Anti-Wear Performance–UCON™Trident™AW fluids have exceptional load carrying

capabilities

and are specially formulated to provide effective corrosion protection and excellent

anti-wear performance over a wide range of temperatures. They are rated as “anti-wear” (AW) fluids

according to ASTM D2882 and FZG testing.

Hydrolytic Stability

– Unlike mineral oil and other environmentally friendly fluids,

UCON™Trident™AW

fluids will not break down to form sludge or hydrolyze in the presence of water. This protects

against the formation of harmful acids that can damage equipment and lead to premature failure.

High Waste Treatability–UCON™Trident™AW

fluids are highly waste-treatable. In tests

simulating the discharge of industrial waste streams to unacclimated municipal treatment plants (POTWs),

UCON™Trident™AW32 fluid demonstrated no adverse impact on either the proper

functioning or performance of the waste treatment systems, even at high discharge levels.

Non-Sludge or Varnish Forming

–UCON™Trident™AW

fluids are oxidatively stable and will not

degrade to form sludge or varnish, extending maintenance intervals and overall service life. This

chemistry also contributes to long-term system cleanliness.

Thermal Stability

–

UCON™Trident™AWfluids are long-lasting products that resist thermal

breakdown and are unaffected by small amounts of water contamination. When the fluid does

eventually begin to degrade, the degradation components are soluble in the fluid and do not fall

out of solution.All-Weather Service

– With high viscosity indices and low pour points, UCON™Trident™AW fluids

can be used year round, eliminating seasonal changeovers. One

UCON™Trident™AW fluid can

replace multiple viscosity grade oils.

Fire Resistance

–UCON™Trident™AW 46 and 68 fluids are FM Approved industrial fluids

UCON™Trident™AW 32 fluid is classified by

Factory Mutual as a Specification Tested Product,

“Less Flammable

Industrial Fluid”.

Material Compatibility–UCON™Trident™AW fluids are not compatible with other hydraulic

fluids

and recognized industry procedures for system cleanup and flushing should be followed. The

fluids are compatible with seals, hoses and metals commonly found in hydraulic systems. Contact
