[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 6648746, member: 718"] Tractor transmission oil is a type of hydraulic oil, as is ATF, dot 4 etc. The term hydraulic simply means fluid movement in confined space. Tractor transmissions are hydraulically actuated and often are driven by a type of hydraulic pump etc. Also as discussed they are grades of oil. some of those grades are for hydraulic use some not. They are common grades for journal bearings, ball bearings and a multitude of other applications in industries with very high quality standards etc. [/QUOTE] Concentrate on ‘standards’. Both American and European performance and viscosity standards. That will put you on the right path rather than guessing and thinking that you know more than you actually do. Forget about the chemistry and think about what the oil is meant to do inside the component apart from lubricate. [/QUOTE]
