Primary Metals
QUINTOLUBRIC® fluids are used throughout the world in the production and processing of steel, aluminum and other metals.

Synthetic Fire Resistant Hydraulic Fluid (HFD)
Designed as a direct replacement for flammable, petroleum-based hydraulic fluids, the QUINTOLUBRIC® 888 Series is compatible with typical pump, valve and equipment materials. For high temperature environments, Quaker recommends QUINTOLUBRIC 822-300-CM, a more thermally stable version of its flagship product line. For applications where fluid life is not as critical, Quaker supplies QUINTOLUBRIC 855 based on natural, vegetable-based products.

High Water Containing Fluids (HFA)
QUINTOLUBRIC® 807 products are used when equipment has been designed for water hydraulic systems.

Compatible Hydraulic Fluids
For applications where leaking hydraulic fluid may contaminate process chemicals such as rolling oils, Quaker manufactures custom, compatible hydraulic fluids. These fluids combine the chemistry and functionality of hydraulic fluids and process chemicals so that leaks do not hinder operational performance.
