Skydrol is the most advanced phosphate ester aviation hydraulic fluid. It has been used in aviation systems for many decades, consistently demonstrating superior performance.
Skydrol is a registered trademark of Solutia. Skydrol products are the most advanced series of aviation hydraulic fluids, recognized by all aircraft manufacturers who specify non-flammable hydraulic fluids.
This brand has been part of the commercial aviation industry’s drive to achieve safety, reliability and superior performance over the last 60 years.
Aviation hydraulic fluid
Product Description
Skydrol PE-5 was developed to meet and exceed the more demanding Type V fluid requirements. It features the longest fluid life of any commercially available fluid, low density and low viscosity at low temperature—an unbeatable combination of the best features for optimum fluid performance. Thermal stability is according to Airbus test method, Fluid life test with 0.5% moisture level.
Aviation Hydraulic Fluid
Product Description
Introduced in 1996, Skydrol 5 was the first Type V fluid qualified under the Boeing BMS 3-11 specification. Skydrol 5 offers higher temperature capability than Type IV fluids, the lowest density, and better paint compatibility. Skydrol 5 does not have universal air frame manufacturer approval, so consult Eastman’s Skydrol Technical Service (800-260-4150) for specific approval and application information.
Aviation hydraulic fluid
Product Description
Skydrol LD-4 was introduced in 1977 , and is well known around the world. At the time of its introduction it was a breakthrough product, solving problems of valve erosion and thermal stability common in earlier fluids. Its excellent thermal stability under real world conditions has given it a reputation as the gold standard among Type IV fluids. Skydrol LD-4 features low density, excellent thermal stability, valve erosion prevention, and deposit control.
Aviation hydraulic fluid
Product Description
The Skydrol 500 series of fluids has the longest service history among phosphate ester products. The first version, Skydrol 500, was introduced in 1952. Steady improvements to the formulation led in 1977 to the current version, Skydrol™ 500B-4 which contains the same breakthrough anti erosion additive and acid scavenger found in Skydrol™ LD-4 . Skydrol 500B-4 is the most worker friendly of the aviation phosphate esters. This has given the product enormous popularity for use in work shops and indoor test stands.
