Greyhound™ Hydraulic FR-46 HFC | Fire-Resistant Hydraulic Fluid for Extreme Conditions
Greyhound™ Hydraulic FR-46 HFC is a high-performance fire-resistant hydraulic fluid designed for use in fire-hazardous environments, such as steel mills, forging shops, heat treatment facilities, die casting shops, and underground coal mines. This HFC-type hydraulic fluid is formulated with an aqueous polymer solution containing more than 41% water, ensuring superior flame resistance while maintaining excellent lubrication and anti-wear properties.
The fluid’s glycol-based formulation offers enhanced thermal stability, corrosion protection, and low foaming characteristics, making it ideal for high-temperature applications where fire safety and operational reliability are critical. Designed to minimize fire risk in hydraulic systems, Greyhound™ Hydraulic FR-46 HFC meets the stringent requirements of VDMA 24317 and ISO 12922 HFC, ensuring compliance with global safety standards.
