Clarion Green BIO oils are a series of readily biodegradable anti-wear hydraulic fluids formulated with premium high oleic natural esters derived from renewable resources and zinc-free, ashless additives to provide protection for demanding hydraulic systems, especially those operating in environmentally sensitive areas.

Clarion Bio environmentally friendly hydraulic fluidThey are available in ISO 32, 46 and 68 viscosity grades. They are zinc-free because zinc compounds are regulated as priority pollutants under provisions of the Clean Water Act and SARA Title 313.

The readily biodegradable fluids have been certified non-toxic in acute aquatic toxicity test (LC-50). They provide high rust and corrosion protection. They also contain inhibitors to minimize foaming and air entrainment.

Clarion BIO oils provide premium anti-wear protection to vane, piston and gear pumps, motors, valves, and other hydraulic circuit components when used in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
