Advantages & Features

  • Low evaporation: This is crucial for aircraft as they operate in a wide range of temperatures, and oil with high volatility would evaporate quickly at high altitudes.

  • Protection from wear and tear: MIL-PRF-6085 oil helps minimise friction and wear on moving parts in aircraft.

  • Corrosion and oxidation resistance: The oil's properties help prevent corrosion and oxidation of metal components.

  • Appearance: Clear, transparent, and consistent in appearance.
