This protective film minimizes metalto-metal contact, which is most severe in vane- and gear-type pumps. The antiwear additives in Chevron Rykon Oils AW create a protective film on the metal surfaces. Surging pressures in pumps and valves can increase metal-to-metal contact unless antiwear protection is present. Hydraulic systems, due to the nature of their operation, experience accelerated wear unless they are protected by clean, high quality antiwear hydraulic oils. They provide excellent antiwear protection, oxidation and corrosion inhibition, as well as foam and aeration suppression.Īll grades have excellent demulsibility characteristics. Chevron Rykon Oils AW are designed to give maximum hydraulic pump protection.Ĭhevron Rykon Oils AW are formulated with ISOSYN® base stocks.
