Synthetic Hydraulic Fluid & FEL performance

<font color="blue"> How or why is Amsoil Synthetic better than NH F200?</font>
It's not just a thinner oil, as previous posts about F200 indicate. It's a full synthetic that flows at -40F.

<font color="blue">Is it suitable for year roud use? </font>
Yep.

Check out Chevron All-Weather THF. Its a full synthetic rated for your machine. And like the Amsoil it does not improve cold flow by lowering the viscosity of the fluid. Just a fluid with a great natural viscosity index.

I've already switched to Amsoil. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Did you mean 'And like the Amsoil it does improve cold flow...'

I think he meant what he said, I'd read it again.

Mike: Which Amsoil product did you use? I went to their website and found several versions. Is one more correct than the others?

 

[MikePA]

<font color="blue"> Which Amsoil product did you use? </font>
Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid, C-3, C-4.

There are 5 different ways to order this, from 1 quart bottles to a 55 gallon drum, but it's the only Amsoil hydraulic fluid I am aware of.

The context of this discussion is tractor hydraulics therefore the only Amsoil product that applies is ATH-Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid, ISO 46, SAE 30

None of the other ones you mentioned apply.

</font> The question was whether there was one Amsoil hydraulic oil or several. There are several, but you are correct, only one applies.
