Castrol Brayco™ Micronic 882 is a red coloured, synthetic hydrocarbon, ISO viscosity grade 15 fire resistant hydraulic fluid for aircraft, ordnance and industrial use. It contains no VI improvers and, unlike conventional hydraulic fluids, is not subject to polymer breakdown under high shear. It can be used as a replacement and make-up oil for MIL-PRF-5606 and is compatible with MIL-PRF-6083 in all proportions. It has high flash, fire and autoignition points and very low flame propagation, and provides controlled rubber swell, low foaming, excellent anti-wear and good corrosion and oxidation stability. Operating temperature is −40 to 205 °C. It meets all requirements of and is qualified under MIL-PRF-83282D Amendment 1.
