FLUIDS FOR
INDUSTRIAL TRANSMISSIONS
Today you can't
just reach for the old standby, ATF. The red fluid is now known
as Dexron-Mercon. And it has been joined by UTH (Universal Tractor
Fluid), motor oil, and C-4 hydraulic fluid.
The lip seals,
seal rings, and oil seals of the current industrial transmission
styles are sensitive to chemical additives. The correct fluid is
essential to long transmission life.
If you have
any questions regarding the proper fluid used in a specific style
of industrial transmission, please call*
AIT.
Or feel free
to email
us at

You will need to furnish both the model
number of the lift truck and the transmission part number
for accurate research.

AIT services only industrial transmissions, forklifts, and small construction equipment. Please limit your inquiries to these styles. We are not a significant source for large construction machinery or automotive technical support.
