Amsoil
Synthetic Thermally Stable Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil
Product Code: TBI
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL TBI hydraulic oil is a premium
lubricant designed to biodegrade to its natural state
when subjected to sunlight, water and microbial activity.
TBI has a very low toxicity level because the oil is formulated
with ashless additives that do not contain heavy metals.
AMSOIL TBI incorporates very high quality
synthetic base oils that provide thermal stability, even
though they are biodegradable. This oil also contains
anti-wear additives that have been thoroughly tested and
qualified against stringent hydraulic oil standards including
Denison HF0, HF1, HF2, Vickers M-2950-S, 1286-S, and Cincinnati
Milacron P-689, P-69 and P-70. TBI provides optimum protection
for your hydraulics because it prevents wear of the pump
and prevents rust of critical components. TBI contains
anti-oxidants that increase the life of the oil and it
contains foam inhibitors that quickly release air from
the oil.
TBI outperforms vegetable oil-type, biodegradable
hydraulic oils because it is based on high quality, synthetic
oil chemistry that lasts longer and withstands heat better.
This ensures problem-free operation.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
AMSOIL TBI is recommended for gear, vane
and piston stationary and mobile hydraulic systems. TBI
is a multi-viscosity, SAE 5W-20 oil and is recommended
for use in place of either ISO-32 or IS-46 hydraulic oils.
TBI is essentially compatible with typical
hydraulic oils and small amounts of contamination (lines,
residue) is acceptable. However, it is recommended that
systems be drained prior to installing TBI. Excessive
system contamination will minimize its biodegradability
effectiveness.
TBI is especially well suited for applications
where environmental contamination due to leaking or blown
hydraulic lines presents an environmental hazard.
TBI has been tested and found compatible
with Nitrile (Buna-N), Poly Acrylate, Flourocarbon (Viton)
and Silicone seals which are commonly found in hydraulic
systems. Consult your AMSOIL sales representative or AMSOIL
INC. when dealing with systems containing seals not listed.
The ability of TBI to extend drain intervals
and excel in performance is subject to operating conditions
and maintenance practices. Monitoring by oil analysis
is recommended.
