Aeroshell Hydraulic Landing Gear Fluid LGF - BMS 3-32 Type II Yellow

AeroShell Landing Gear Fluid (LGF) is a mineral hydraulic fluid MIL-PRF-5606 to which additional additives have been added to improve the extreme pressure characteristics and the fluids natural lubricity. The lubricity agent provides a stable thin film layer to the metal surfaces at mild operating conditions. When severe conditions exist (landing/touchdown), the extreme pressure additive supplies the load carrying needed at the metal-to-metal surfaces to prevent the occurrence of such phenomena as ladder cracking and slip stiction of the piston component of the landing gear. AeroShell LGF is AeroShell Fluid 41 plus additives.AeroShell SSF and LGF are straw yellow in color.

Applications

AeroShell LGF makes it particularly suitable in areas of low-temperature operations. AeroShell SSF and AeroShell LGF are compatible with each other as well as with AeroShell Fluids 4, 41 and 71.
