Why choose Zircon Z 46

Duckhams Zircon Z Hydraulic Oils are a range of anti-wear hydraulic oils blended using high-quality solvent-refined base oils with a balanced additive system, which includes anti-wear additives and oxidation inhibitors. They are suitable for most types of mobile or stationary hydraulic systems, including gear, piston and vane pump hydraulic systems, operating over a wide range of ambient temperatures. Developed using high-quality solvent-refined base oils, these products meet or exceed industry standards for HM hydraulic fluids. Available in ISO viscosity grades 32, 46 and 68.

  • Excellent anti-wear performance protects components within the hydraulic system and reduces operating costs by extending pump life and minimising downtime.
  • Excellent hydrolytic stability improves protection of yellow metal components, even in the presence of water, extending component life.
  • Good thermal and oxidative stability extends oil life, reducing operating costs.
  • Good sludge and particulate control maintains system cleanliness, extending filter life and reducing filter change frequency.
  • Excellent filterability.
  • Good anti-rust and anti-corrosion properties protect the system.
  • Compatible with elastomers commonly used as seals within the hydraulic system.
  • Excellent water separation, air release and anti-foam properties.
