RED OIL (MIL-H-5606) Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Red Oil, commonly known as MIL-H-5606 hydraulic fluid, is a mineral oil based aviation hydraulic fluid widely used in military aircraft, aerospace equipment, and military vehicles. This petroleum based hydraulic oil provides strong lubrication, oxidation resistance, and anti-wear performance in hydraulic systems operating under high pressure and varying temperatures. When evaluating chemical compatibility, O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and plastic components must be selected for compatibility with petroleum hydraulic fluids. Proper handling, storage, contamination control, and routine hydraulic system maintenance help ensure reliable performance and long service life.
