Why cannot the hydraulic oil of hydraulic jacks be replaced by other oils

Time:2026-07-22 Author:gh-jacks

Recently, a customer inquired about whether other oils can be used instead of hydraulic oil for hydraulic jacks? We all know that hydraulic oil is an important component of hydraulic systems. Its main function is to generate oil pressure through fluid transmission, thereby driving the lifting of the jack plunger. However, hydraulic oil must not be replaced by other oils.

If we forcefully replace hydraulic oil with other oils, it will cause damage to the hydraulic jack once there is a displacement reaction. Hydraulic oil is mainly suitable for hydraulic systems and is the hydraulic medium used in hydraulic systems. It not only transmits pressure, but also has lubrication and other functions.

The workmanship of hydraulic oil is quite complex, consisting of various additives such as antioxidants, anti-wear agents, anti foaming agents, and so on. Its viscosity is relatively high, but it can also be chosen. Never just focus on immediate benefits, avoid using oil indiscriminately, and use whatever oil is needed to ensure the normal use of hydraulic jacks.
