What grade is John Deere hydraulic oil?

Hy-Gard transmission and hydraulic oil is a unique oil developed by John Deere engineers to meet the exact needs of John Deere machines. Hy-Gard fluid is a multi-viscosity fluid with a high-viscosity index. Hy-Gard viscosity places it between ISO 46 and 68 grades.

What weight oil is tractor hydraulic fluid?

Universal Tractor Hydraulic Fluid is a SAE viscosity grade 10W-30 and meets API GL-4 gear oil specifications.

What weight is John Deere transmission fluid?

An exclusive formulation, specifically designed to protect John Deere transmissions, final drives and hydraulic systems. Hy-Gard oil can be used in most transmission and hydraulic applications calling for 10W-30 or 5W-30 engine oil.

What viscosity is John Deere high guard hydraulic oil?

John Deere Hy-Gard Transmission and Hydraulic Oil

Hy-Gard fluid is a multi-viscosity fluid with a high-viscosity index. Hy-Gard viscosity places it between ISO 46 and 68 grades. Hy-Gard may be used in many applications specifying either of these grades.

What viscosity is John Deere low viscosity HY-Gard?

Both Hy-Gard fluids are multi-viscosity fluids with high-viscosity index. Low-Viscosity Hy-Gard has an ISO 32 viscosity grade.

Which hydraulic oil is thicker 32 or 46?

32 is thinner, No. 46 is medium and No. 68 is thicker. Generally speaking, if the temperature is low in winter, use #32 & #46 hydraulic oil with a lower viscosity, and use #68 hydraulic oil with a higher viscosity in summer.

What is the difference between ISO 46 and AW 46 hydraulic oil?

The vicosity is simply referred to by ISO 46. AW stands for Anti Wear. AW 46 is the same as AW 46. The words are rearranged in different ways.

What weight is ISO 46 hydraulic oil?

Obviously, SAE and ISO use two different scales to measure viscosity. SAE 10W is equivalent to ISO 32, SAE 20 is equivalent to ISO 46 and 68, and SAE 30 is equivalent to ISO 100.

What oil goes in the back end of a John Deere?

Oil Suitable for John Deere Tractor Including 10w/30, 15w/40 Engine Oil – Tractor Transmission Fluid – Hydraulic Oil – EP80w/90 Axle Oil – EP80w/90 Differential Oil.

What kind of hydraulic fluid does a John Deere excavator take?

Suitable For Use In John Deere Excavator: Hydraulic ISO 46 – 15w/40 Engine Oil – EP80w/90, 85w/140 Gear Transmission.

Who makes John Deere hydraulic fluid?

Subject: RE: Who Makes JD Oil? Chevron formulates and packages John Deere Plus-50 and Northland makes the 0w-40 in the continental United States. In Europe it is made by Petro-Canada.

Is tractor fluid the same as hydraulic fluid?

They are designed for applications in different tractor and heavy-duty machinery components. Hydraulic oil transfers power, while tractor fluid lubricates the moving parts within a transmission. Choosing the right tractor fluid and hydraulic oil can have an effect on the performance of your equipment.

Is ISO 68 and AW 68 the same?

AW 68 hydraulic fluids have an International Standards Viscosity Grade or ISO VG of 68. This is the thickness of the fluid tested at 40 degrees Celsius. ISO VG 68 is on the heavier side for a hydraulic fluid which flows equivalent to a SAE 20 weight lubricant.

Can you mix J20C and J20D?

Mixing the oils may result in costly damage to the transmission in extreme hot or cold weather. Make sure to remove all old oil from the transmission before changing to an alternative oil viscosity.

Is AW 46 hydraulic oil 10-weight?

The main difference between AW32 and AW46 hydraulic fluid is the weight - AW32 is a 10-weight fluid, and AW46 is a 20-weight fluid.

Can you mix different grades of hydraulic oil?

"Is it all right to mix an R&O hydraulic oil with an AW hydraulic oil in a hydraulic application?" Mixing oils with different additive packages is never recommended. Doing so could compromise the additive performance of both constituents, cause corrosion of component surfaces and lead to increased mechanical wear.

What happens if you use the wrong hydraulic fluid?

Whether it is changing hydraulic filters too often or using the wrong type of hydraulic fluid, these errors can lead to serious problems such as unnecessary maintenance costs, increased repair costs, system downtime, premature wear of components, and even catastrophic failure.

What is ISO 46 hydraulic oil used for?

Protects hard-working hydraulic systems from the stress of high-pressure, high-load and heavy-duty operations. Remains fluid in cold temperatures for immediate cold-weather flow. Special anti-wear additives and rust inhibitors provide optimum protection to expensive equipment.

What viscosity hydraulic oil should I use?

The highly desirable hydraulic oil must have a viscosity index range more than 95. If a low viscosity index fluid is selected for an application requiring low-temperature, the fluid will freeze and resist free movement of fluid through the system.

What viscosity is 303 hydraulic oil?

Viscosity Index 2270 61 min.

What oil should I use in my John Deere Gator?

Synthetic Plus-50 II Premium Engine Oil (SAE 0W-40) has been designed to provide advanced lubricant performance in modern engines to meet the requirements of EPA regulations.

What is ISO 32 hydraulic fluid?

Hydraulic 32 is part of Crown Oil's range of premium-grade mineral-based hydraulic oils with good anti-wear properties providing protection in the most demanding of systems while still meeting ISO standards for hydraulic oil. This hydraulic fluid is rust, corrosion and oxidation inhibited.
