What is the difference between mechanical oil and hydraulic oil?
1 Answers
The differences between mechanical oil and hydraulic oil are: 1. Different compositions: Mechanical oil is processed from base oil and antioxidants; hydraulic oil is processed from base oil, antioxidants, anti-wear agents, and anti-foaming agents. 2. Different uses: Mechanical oil is used in textiles, sewing machines, and various lathes, etc.; hydraulic oil is used in automobile transmission mechanisms and mining machinery. Mechanical oil is a general-purpose lubricating oil, suitable for various light-load machinery operating at around 50 degrees Celsius, with only pour point depressants added. Hydraulic oil is a hydraulic medium used in hydraulic systems that utilize liquid pressure energy, playing roles in energy transmission, anti-wear, system lubrication, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, and cooling within the hydraulic system.
