HYDROLUBE, WATER & ETHYLENE GLYCOL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Hydrolube, a mixture of water and ethylene glycol, is used primarily as a coolant and antifreeze in various industrial and automotive applications. The water component provides excellent heat transfer properties, while ethylene glycol prevents freezing and boiling in extreme temperatures. Hydrolube is also used as a hydraulic fluid in some applications. It offers good lubrication and corrosion protection, extending the lifespan of machinery and components. Despite its utility, ethylene glycol is toxic if ingested and can cause severe health effects. Proper handling, storage, and disposal are essential to minimize environmental and health risks associated with hydrolube.
