Industrial machinery relies heavily on hydraulic fluids; however, these fluids are known for their flammability, which poses a significant safety concern, especially in environments with high temperatures and potential ignition sources. This is particularly problematic in industries such as aluminum extrusion plants. Ronald Knecht, Global Strategic Product Line Manager – Hydraulics & Lubricants and Guillermo Díaz del Pino, Business Development Manager – Operating Solutions from Quaker Houghton, explore the best fire resistant hydraulic fluid options to mitigate risk in manufacturing plants.
