No Fire WG 200R
Premimum Water Glycol Hydraulic Fluid - For Pressures Up To 2000 psi
No Fire WG 200R is a premium water glycol fire resistant hydraulic fluid used in industrial applications in place of conventional hydraulic fluid where fire is a concern. It provides a safer working environment than conventional mineral oil based hydraulic fluids where hydraulic piping may rupture and spray hydraulic fluid onto hot surfaces, mineral oil based fluids can ignite causing a severe hazard to plant personnel and equipment.
No Fire WG 200R is recommended for use in precision industrial systems operating at system pressures up to 2000 psi at 50° C
No Fire WG 200R water glycol fire resistant hydraulic fluid is an EcoLogo approved environmental fluid that supports ISO 14000 Environmental Certification and is also Group 1 Factory Mutual approved fluid.
