EPF 262 is a synthetic hydraulic fluid suitable for use at pressures up to and in excess of 200,000 psi.
Features:
• Good compatibility with nitrile seals
• Good lubricity
• Low viscosity
• Low flammability
• Very low chemical reactivity
• Electrically non-conductive
• Non-corrosive, and non-hygroscopic
• Non-hazardous
EPF 262 is a clear liquid similar to a light hydraulic oil. Unlike oils, which solidify at about 80,000 psi, EPF 262 remains liquid at pressures in excess of 200,000 psi.
EPF 262 has none of the drawbacks common to most other fluids used at high pressures, such as poor seal compatibility, high flammability or promotion of corrosion.
EPF 262 type fluid, also known by the old trade name Plexol® 262, has been used successfully at very high pressures for many years.
