A. Castrol Hyspin AWS 46 is designed for severely stressed hydraulic systems requiring a high level of anti-wear performance. The ISO VG 46 viscosity is the standard general-service hydraulic viscosity for ambient and warm-climate operation.
A. Castrol Hyspin AWS 46 is supplied at ISO VG 46 — the most common hydraulic viscosity grade in industrial service.
A. Castrol Hyspin AWS 46 meets ISO 6743-4; and DIN 51502 and 51524.
A. Yes, the Castrol Hyspin AWS range uses a zinc-containing anti-wear additive system.
A. Both are Castrol ISO VG 46 anti-wear hydraulic oils. Hyspin AWS 46 is the standard-VI zinc-containing range for general industrial hydraulic and circulation service. Hyspin HVI 46 is the high-viscosity-index ashless (zinc-free) range for severely stressed mobile hydraulic systems requiring wide-temperature viscosity stability.
A. API and ACEA are the universal lubricant performance standards every reputable oil meets. They are your baseline check — match the code your handbook specifies (e.g., API CI-4 or ACEA E7 for heavy-duty diesel) and the oil is technically suitable for your machine. Every oil on our site lists its API and ACEA classifications.
A. An OEM Specification is the lubricant requirement set by a vehicle or equipment manufacturer (e.g., MB 228.3, VW 504.00). When an oil lists the code, the oil manufacturer has developed and tested it to meet the criteria the equipment manufacturer requires. Match the code in your handbook and you have a lubricant engineered for your machine.
A. An OEM Approval means the oil has been formally tested and signed off by the equipment manufacturer and listed on their official approved-products register (e.g., MB-Approval 228.3). An Approval confirms the oil is recognised by the equipment manufacturer for service use in their machines.
