UCON™ Trident AW 46 is an ISO 46 polyalkylene glycol that offers exceptional lubricity in large-scale calendering and mill equipment. It is approved as an environmentally acceptable lubricant (EAL).
Dow UCON™ Trident AW 46 is a high-performance hydraulic fluid designed for industrial applications where environmental sensitivity is important. UCON™ Trident AW 46 is a polyalkylene glycol (PAG) based fluid that does not form sludge or hydrolyze in the presence of water.
In addition to anti-wear (AW) properties, UCON™ Trident AW 46 hydraulic fluid is a water-soluble polyalkylene glycol formula, which provides easier cleanup than conventional oil-based fluids.
